🌿 About the region

The Lüneburg Heath is famous for its vast expanses of heathland that turn purple in late summer. This landscape of nearly 20,000 hectares, classified as Germany's first nature park in 1921, is crisscrossed by numerous walking trails. The region is also known for its junipers and for the Heidschnucke, a traditional sheep breed that helps preserve this characteristic environment.
