Even a four- or five-meter-high hill, built for visitors, offers a much better overview of the landscape left behind by decades of peat extraction.

Great bike path on super smooth asphalt

I wouldn't have expected an old ore smelter here! But apparently it was worth it a few thousand years ago. Of course, looking for it in the forest now is pointless. But what the heck, it's better to read up on how it used to be done.

The Himmelmoor is located in Quickborn and neighboring communities in the district of Pinneberg. With originally around 600 hectares of moor surface, it was the largest raised moor in Schleswig-Holstein. Until 2018, peat was still mined in the bog. (Source: Wikipedia)

This wonderful tree park can be visited daily from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Colorful flowers, meadows with beautiful and shady seating to relax, cottage garden, lotus lake, water forest, shady playground and much more is entertaining, beautiful to look at and relaxing. In the café you can e.g. Enjoy coffee and cake and buy one or two plants for the garden or balcony in front of the Aboretum. Opposite there is the possibility to pick strawberries yourself or if you don't have enough energy, just to buy them. Frequented a lot by coaches in summer. Changing mat in the disabled toilet!

It is worth taking a tour of the arboretum

The track was open on the day I took the photos. When I was last there, the track was closed. That's not so bad because there is also a path that leads through the forest

A beautiful meadow path leads from the forest to the outskirts of Ellerhoop to the arboretum. To do this, you cross a railless bridge over a very idyllic stream with old willow trees. A beautiful place!
