August 7, 2022,Senile Bettflucht ins Wittmoor
Something is wrong with me. While normal people return home from their party early on a Sunday morning (at 5:15 the tube was full), I set out for a short Sunday tour of Wittmoor.

The rest of the morning was amazement.

I hadn't planned a tour this weekend, but the inner restlessness told me to go out to the nature reserve in wintry temperatures. It went to a high moor that partly belongs to Hamburg and partly to Schleswig Holstein. The part of Hamburg was completely destroyed by digging the peat there in contrast to the part in Schleswig Holstein. This …

The Wittmoor (Low German for white moor) is a paradise for walkers and nature lovers with an area of 106 hectares.

Moor, heath, forests and pastures are well developed with hiking trails.
An insider tip all year round. Only not recommended after a long rain.

Today's hike has been planned for a long time, but I saved it in order to exceed the …

Contrary to the weather forecast, we were able to enjoy the beautiful circular trail through the Wittmoor in dry conditions and, at times, in sunshine. A very varied trail, one we certainly won't be visiting for the last time.
