During our visit, the heath wore a white dress. Absolutely beautiful.

The "Legendary Hünenweg" also runs along this path. All information about the circular trail can be found at the following link: https://www.lueneburger-heide.de/natur/touren/14004/oldendorf-luhe-wanderweg-sagenhafter-huenenweg-rundweg-13-km.html (as of September 4, 2025).

The heather is worth visiting now from October to the end of September as it is now in its flowering season

I'll save myself the copy-key, which is largely done here - and with such frequency that it makes you sick. Oldendorfer Totenstatt is an old large stone grave in the countryside of Oldendorf (Luhe). Mighty boulders form a burial chamber here, which has been used several times over the centuries. A picnic area invites you to take a break. The unusual shape of the valley immediately catches the eye. It is believed that this valley was formed by a river at the end of the Ice Age and therefore received its shape. From here you can easily get to Kronsbergheide. The Heath Queen of Amelinghausen has been elected there since 1950. Heather Blossom Festival takes place every year in the 3rd week of August. Totenstatt is a RAD-free zone! MTB and gravel cyclists should pay particular attention...the Totenstatt is not a lawless area

"The" heath doesn't really exist. Although the Lüneburg Heath has the largest contiguous heath areas in Europe, these are more of individual, large areas that are spread over the entire width of the Lüneburg Heath. An exception is the large Lüneburg Heath nature reserve with its huge heath areas. Due to the different locations, sometimes on a slope, sometimes on the south side, the heath areas bloom at different times, and the beginning is almost never the same. This ensures that you can find blooming heather as early as the end of July and the last blossoms can sometimes still be seen in October. The heath areas are all named, e.g. Kronsbergheide. They are all part of the Lüneburg Heath and thus make orientation easier. The heather plant that is primarily found in the Lüneburg Heath and characterizes its landscape is the common heather - "Calluna vulgaris". It is also often referred to as heather. The bell heather (Erica tetralix) usually flowers a short time before the common heather and prefers swampy areas such as raised bogs. The rule of thumb for the heather blossom is 08.08. to 09.09., but of course that always depends on the overall weather conditions. In the last two years, the heather blossoms have already started in the last days of July. The large sea of flowers arises from about the 3rd-4th week, so around the middle/end of August. The heather needs rain and sun at certain times to sprout well. The first forecasts about the heather blossom can be made in June.
