Overall, it's a bit monotonous and boring to ride. However, it's perfectly fine as a change of pace between trails or gravel roads.

The reclamation of the Himmelmoor began around 1780. Its edges were divided into 1,000 to 5,000 square meter plots and transferred to farmers from neighboring villages for peat extraction. Industrial peat extraction began in the 1870s. Peat was now also extracted from the center of the moor using machines. Peat excavators extracted the black peat, compressed it, and divided it into sods. Turning the drying sods was increasingly done by machine, as was the collection of the dry peat. The low-energy fuel was packaged and loaded at the peat works.

Particularly beautiful in western sunshine…

The Kupferteich (Copper Pond) on the border of the Hamburg districts of Poppenbüttel and Lemsahl-Mellingstedt was originally a mill pond and served as a copper mill. It is easily circumnavigated by bike or on foot. It was created by damming the Mellingbek and Twelenbek rivers, which flow from the Wittmoor and join in front of the pond, to a height of approximately 900 meters. In the mill at the Kupferteich, a copper hammer was used to produce panels for roofs, ship floors, and boilers for sugar refineries. Remains of fish ponds can be found at the northern end of the Kupferteich. In the mid-19th century, the Kupferteich became a sawmill, later an oil mill, after which the facility fell into disuse. Due to its dilapidated condition, it was demolished in 1929. The Kupferteich is now an approximately 7.0-hectare fishing lake, and since 2019, it, including its shoreline, has been designated a specially protected biotope area under the Federal Nature Conservation Act. A golf course has stretched east and west of the Kupferteich since the 21st century. There is a dog walking area on the western shore of the pond. Access to the Kupferteich is via the 1.5 km long Kupferteichweg, a road that leads to a sandy path leading to the pond. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kupferteich_(Mellingbek)
