Very large and super old oak tree at the mill, very beautiful tree

The burial mound is located in a pasture and therefore cannot be visited, but an information board explains its history. Since barrows were always created (also as waymarks) on trade routes, this hill indicates a former route.

The more than 500-year-old English oak stands at the edge of town opposite the historic Scheeßel mill and is considered a natural monument.

Idyllic landscape with sandy paths and juniper bushes.

I headed for the Vareler Heide on a tour between Hamburg and Bremen in order to avoid the main road as much as possible. I was very positively surprised. There is a lot of heather here, sheep or goats graze here and you can also see historic stables. The path through the heath is a lot of fun to drive because it is narrow and technically feasible. A highlight is the beautifully designed recreation area with a work of art. Here you have a great view over the heath. Conclusion: a must see.

Charming heath area, but then a bit small. As a destination then only something for the curious or nature junkies who always need new destinations, otherwise more sensible as part of a longer route. Or as a local recreation area for residents.
