    The hike W7 "Gauss's survey points in the mountains of the southern heath" follows in the footsteps of the famous Göttingen mathematician and surveyor Johann Carl Friedrich Gauss. In the 19th century, he used the hills of the southern heath for his surveying work and two memorial stones commemorate his achievements (source: lueneburger-heide.de)

      On the Wilseder Berg there is a Gauss memorial stone with a Gauss medallion.

        Here you have a really beautiful view of the heathland. In the late afternoon, when the sun is already lower, the heath is bathed in soft light.
