Heiligenthal Pig Meadow

Highlight • Structure

At Heiligenthal on Südergellerser Weg there is a pig meadow. It is fenced and provided with individual shelters. These are divided into lots and if you're lucky like me, you can see at certain times even small piglets running around. The pigs are as good as the whole year outside.

Südergellerser Bach Information Point

Highlight • Structure

Oh damn me, a bench as a highlight. It is located on a farm road south Südergellersen. It is nothing special than that you can look over the meadow to the edge of the forest. Can sit in the sun, if it shines. Incidentally, you can read a small tables and learn about local peculiarities.

Alledrings flows the Südergellerser Bach into the Hasenburger Mühlenbach before he drives the mill. The ravages of time gnaw at the blackboard, so this little incorrectness is forgiven.

Hambörn charcoal hut and sheepfold

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The local recreation area Hambörn Südergellersen is located one and a half kilometers west of the village Südergellersen and is very varied: Species-rich grassland, small heather areas, the Bürgerwald Südergellersen, a lookout tower (on which you can see as far as Lüneburg and further) and the Hambörn funeral forest are to be found here Find.

The avenue of trees welcomes you in the Bürgerwald: here you can learn a lot about the tree species and their importance. Trees are planted on another part for special occasions such as weddings and births.

A diverse natural landscape was found here: a wide variety of valuable habitats, such as old deciduous forests, a heathland, hedges, pioneer forests and meadows make this area a lovable natural habitat and recreation area. An old sheepfold with a Koehler hut is located here and can be used for events.

The largest area, however, is made up of a mixed deciduous forest dominated by beeches, which is allowed to develop into a "primeval forest" by renouncing any use. If you want to explore the wider area, you can hike on the Südergellersen corridor trail from here.

Tip: This so-called "natural forest cell" can also be explored with a wheelchair via a barrier-free path. And various nature trails in Südergellersen invite you to explore the surrounding area.

Bürgerwald Südergellersen Observation Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

... The lookout tower should round off the offer in the local recreation area Hambörn for locals and tourists. There, at the end of Westergellerser Straße, there is an already unique ensemble of community forest, jungle cell, sheepfold, Köhlerhütte and a small heather area. A 34-meter-long footbridge extends into the jungle cell, which ends at a small viewing platform in the natural beech forest. That was the result of the “Barrier-free nature experience” project in autumn 2012. The Hambörn is one of the 32 selected “natural wonders” of the Lüneburg Heath Nature Park.

The lookout tower is part of the “Naturblicke” project of the nature park from 2012, in which various viewpoints in the region were to be re-staged.

Bench on Wollis Meadow

Highlight • Viewpoint

For almost three months now there has been a nice, small bench on "Wollis Wiese", which he uses to win the hay. Here you have a wonderful all-round view of fields, meadows, the path up into the forest, the lookout tower and the wind turbines. In the morning, the two thick oak trees, beneath which the bench stands, provide wonderful shade while lingering; In the evening, depending on the weather, there are great sunsets to marvel at over the Bürgerwald and the funeral forest.

Südergellersen Cemetery

Highlight • Structure

If you leave Südergellersen relatively centrally in the village via Friedhofsweg, after the fields, shortly after station 15 of the Südergellerser educational path with the beginning of the forest, you reach the Südergellerser cemetery.

It's an old cemetery with a great landscape. Undulating hills, which presumably (like the deep valley / station 16 corridor nature trail) owe their shape to the debris deposits of the Ice Age glaciers, characterize the image of this beautiful cemetery.

Those who like cemeteries should take the time to experience the charm and atmosphere of this cemetery.

Tiefental Nature Trail (Südergellersen Nature Trail Station 16)

Highlight • Trail

Tens of thousands of years ago, the Ice Age glaciers shaped our landscape. They pushed large debris deposits in front of them or piled them up next to them. These debris deposits remained when the ice melted. Over time, wind and water have rounded the rugged, angular debris deposits into gentle, undulating hills. Just like here today in the overgrown valley.
In winter when there is snow, you can meet one or two winter friends and snow lovers up on the Tiefentaler Berg for tobogganing or warming up with a warm cocoa from the vacuum jug you brought with you.
The Tiefental is station 16 of the Südergellersen educational path

February 11, 2024,Flurlehrpfad Südergellersen:

After almost 3 months of abstinence due to injury, I finally went on a short hike again today.
I chose the nature trail in Südergellersen from my long bucket list. Friendly gray and refreshing drizzle accompanied me on this tour ;).
It started at the forest cemetery in Südergellersen. It's a great place to park and start. I (coincidentally) walked …

After yesterday's water trail, which didn't really pick me up, today I had to do a route that I enjoy and that has something to counteract the gray of the day. In local areas around the village, on the educational trail. With a few (due to the weather few) good encounters & nice exchanges of words, the forest cemetery, which …

At the start of the weekend, the first two-digit door in the Nordmarsch Advent calendar should be opened. Once the nature trail around our little muggish village is 11-12km.

That’s the plan. The wind, back again, whistled properly around the houses and Father Frost conjured up bizarre ice formations on the puddles.
