August 12, 2024,47/24 Rundwanderung Wohldorfer Wald & Duvenstedter Brook

Disclaimer: Komoot may have choked on the time and average speed information.

This afternoon/early evening I went on a circular hike from Ohlstedt through the Wohldorfer Forest and the Duvenstedter Brook.

A beautiful and relaxing, 15.3km long feel-good hike through a very varied and beautiful landscape, all in the best summer hiking weather.

June 1, 2024,⭕️ Ohlstedt: Wohldorfer Wald und Duvenstedter Brook

Today we took the subway to the last stop of the U1 in Ohlstedt. In glorious sunshine and almost summery temperatures we went through the Wohldorfer forest, past Kupferteich and Kupfermühle and Brookhus for a walk around the Duvenstedter Brook. The mosquitoes were quite friendly, speeds under 5 km/h should be avoided.

Like a small, hidden natural paradise, the Wohldorfer Wald and Duvenstedter Brook nature reserves stretch across northern Hamburg, encompassing heath and moorland, with the Ammersbek, a tributary of the Alster, flowing right through them.

It's a perfect idyll, really, but the irony is the air traffic heading towards the airport, which eventually starts to get a bit annoying.

February 19, 2023,Auf der Suche nach dem Frühling - im Duvenstedter Brook

The Duvenstedter Brook always works. But just outside the breeding season it is fantastic when the small border wall can be walked on. In any case, with the sun shining brightly, it was an absolute highlight.

December 7, 2025,Brückeneinweihung - endlich wieder Duvenstedter Brook

I'm too clumsy for Komoot. I just move the mouse for a second and poof, the comment is gone.

So, back to square one, and I'd better save after every sentence.

For months, my favorite hiking areas in Hamburg were blocked. The elevated railway was under construction – "Volksdorf Bridges 2025." Now the subway is running again, and Sunday was …

So “hiking” was on the calendar. Despite the rain, it was a nice round...even if the starlings didn't dance. But we did hear a deer growling.

May 1, 2024,Die Kühle im Duvenstedter Brook genießen ☀️🌳

The Duvenstedter Brook is and remains one of my favorite places. The larger paths were, as expected, a bit busier. But on the smaller paths we were almost alone in the moor and forest. Well... us and the mosquitoes. 😅
