Schwindebecker Heath
The heath near the village of Schwindebeck only spreads a few hundred
metres between the adjacent forests, but its sandy trails cover many kilometres
in length. The paths lead to Feldherrenhügel
(‘‘commander’s hill’’), from where there is a great view over the long Schwindebecker Heath and the surrounding
countryside.
The name of the elevated area reflects
its earlier use as a military training area, when British tanks transformed the
area into a sandy moonscape. Since 1990, Schwindebecker Heath has been a
successful example for the restoration
of heathlands.
Footpath
A designated hiking route called
the Heath Panorama Path leads across
Schwindebecker Heath. The yellow
directional arrows on a blue background also lead to Schwindequelle, a true natural
wonder.
Schwindebeck
This beautiful village is located
between Soderstorf and Bispingen, 8 minutes drive from Amelinghausen. Both at Schwindequelle
and county road 44, car parks form an ideal starting point for a walk across Schwindebecker Heath.
For nature lovers with camper vans, we recommend the parking area right on Schwindebecker Heath.
Getting there:
Drive to 21388 Soderstorf and
then follow the signs to Schwindebecker Heide.
