A mystical atmosphere prevails in the juniper grove.

A beautiful barefoot path surrounds this juniper grove

Conservation of wet meadow complexes, particularly with litter meadows or extensively used wet meadows, near-natural moors, silting zones of standing waters with sparse reed beds or sedge marshes, habitats without hazards such as overhead power lines, conservation of temporarily flooded depressions, wet arable areas and permanently water-bearing ditches, grass, reed and herbaceous borders, and conservation of undisturbed or at least low-disturbance breeding sites during the breeding season from 15 February to 15 August

The 330 m long overflow sill, the inlet of the Alfsee, was built in 1974 with a 10 hectare settling basin. This is where sand and alluvial particles that would worsen the water quality of the lake are supposed to settle. The outlet structure was also built in 1974.

The Hase flows through small gates into the Alfsee.

The special thing is of course the heathland with juniper. But the design of the barefoot path is also very well done.

Even if you are here a little after the main flowering period, the view is worth it. It really is a small piece of Lüneburg Heath.

Great nature reserve.
