Shelter at Naturpark Südheide

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Very good central shelter that is well maintained and offers plenty of space. Here it can be endured in torrential rain.

Juniper forest

Highlight • Forest

At the Faßberg we go through a fantastic heath landscape again. Countless juniper bushes also grow here, which is why the area is also known as the juniper forest.

August 9, 2024,Heidefläche – große Heidefläche Runde von Oerrel
It was a beautiful hike through the blooming heathland.

Nice round. The starting point is the juniper forest car park in Faßberg. From there, the path leads first around a large heather field, then into a small forest. Later, it goes straight on for what feels like several kilometers through a managed forest and along several agricultural areas... please don't be discouraged 😉 The path then bends off again …

The starting point of today's hiking tour was the parking lot at the juniper forest
I found out last week from the locals in Hustedt that the heath is blooming this year like it hasn't been in a long time 😳
So we absolutely had to check it out today .👀
As I said, we started at the parking …

Porcini mushrooms without end, blueberries, cranberries, blackberries and juniper berries ... a pleasure tour :-)

On our last day on the heath, the weather gods had an understanding and sent us sunshine ☀️ and pleasant hiking temperatures. 🙂. We wanted to "climb" a Heide summit today 😁 and we decided to go to the Faßberg with its 94m, including the summit cross and summit book 😄 Was hardly possible, but the view was magnificent 😉 …

A beautiful circular hike from the Schmarbecker juniper forest with plenty of sun.
