Very varied, by boards of the Environmental Agency, there is much to know about this nature reserve to Learn. Both for walking and hiking, these trails invite a forest floor, gravel soil, a bit of asphalt at the allotments.

Through the forest along the river

Highlight (Segment) • Structure

The forest area is always worth a detour, but you are rarely alone here! So my tip: Avoid the main paths when the weather is nice and on weekends in general!

September 2, 2022,Blick auf die Ilmenau – Ilmenau Wilschenbruch Runde von Häcklingen

Very green and relaxing walk along the beloved Ilmenau. The path has many rest areas, good for watching the many water sports enthusiasts, we also felt like paddling 🙂 However, I can't explain the fast time, we were definitely meant to be laaangsaaamer 😬

April 7, 2024,Teiche und Natur – Handwerker-Brücke Runde von Häcklingen

The sun was shining again today🌞 so I went outside. As I had seen yesterday that the water level in the Ilmenau was very high, I thought 🙋I'd take a walk along the Ilmenau. So off I went. The paths directly along the 🚣 river were muddy but still easy to walk. There were lots of people kayaking on the …

March 4, 2023,Wanderung an der Ilmenau bei Lüneberg 👍👍👍

In the middle of the tour, if you like, you can also make a detour to Lüneburg in the city centre. Are, however, about 2 km …

After work today we went on a tour of discovery around Lüneburg. It was really relaxing and especially since I had to stop hiking last weekend after a calf cramp and had to regenerate my foot and calf at home. Was a nice hike along the Illmenau and was able to enjoy the peace and nature.

The tour was pre-planned, hence the detour into the city. It's not necessary, but the graffiti wall in the underpass is worth a look!

Simply wonderful, this beautiful spring day 😍!
