The Osterheide, as the westernmost part of the Lüneburg Heath nature reserve, extends from the eastern outskirts of Schneverdingen to federal highway 3. Wide heath areas extend close to the city, in which a well-developed network of paths provides insights into the heathland cultural landscape.

The Osterheide nature reserve is located east of Schneverdingen and, with its extensive heathland, borders the nature reserve with the Wilseder Berg. You can hike to Wilsede via the “Spitzbubenweg” hiking trail, an ancient salt smugglers’ path. The Osterheide is one of the largest heath areas and has another attraction to offer with the adjacent Pietzmoor. The proximity to the city of Schneverdingen is also ideal because of the infrastructure. The landscape is gentle and only the rustling of the leaves of the numerous birch trees can be heard. Dark green junipers stand in wonderful contrast to the purple heather.

A beautiful area for hiking. The paths are well signposted and can be walked with good shoes. Water for dogs should be taken with you. In some places you have a great view over the heathland. Not as crowded as some other areas. You can also explore the Osterheide by horse-drawn carriage.
