Hiking

ELBHÖHEN-WENDLAND NATURE PARK

The Elbhöhen-Wendland Nature Park, which covers an area of 1160 square kilometers and is located in the easternmost corner of Lower Saxony, is characterized by Rundling villages with their half-timbered houses worth seeing and by a varied, often ecologically oriented agriculture. The Elbhöhen, the Göhrde-Drawehn-Höhenzug and the Nemitzer Heide invite you to go hiking and in quiet nature reserves you can easily discover many different plants and animals.

The Lüchow-Dannenberg region is a paradise for hikers. With currently 28 hiking tours, recreational athletes and active vacationers can choose from a large and very varied selection. A total of 22 hiking tours and 6 long-distance hiking trails lead through the Lüchow-Dannenberg region and invite you to explore.

Horseback riding

Since the Wendland was declared the most horse-friendly region in 2006, it goes without saying that horse and rider will feel at home all around. Riders of all ages are offered a varied vacation program in a rural idyll. Whether by horse or carriage, when you leave the equestrian farm you are immediately in nature and decide for yourself what you will see today.

Canoeing

approx. 18 km

Peace and relaxation in one of the last natural river landscapes in Germany: Experience a guided canoe tour on the Elbe downstream in team canoes of 10 under the motto “In the hunting ground of the sea eagle”. Halfway down the river you are invited to a coffee break on the sandy beach. Or watch a beaver family having “breakfast” at dusk with a bit of luck on a guided evening tour.

Golf

Approx. 24 km

The Golf-Club an der Göhrde was founded in 1968 as the first facility between Hamburg-Bremen-Hanover and Braunschweig. At first it was only a 9-hole course. Since 2000, there has been an 18-hole course that blends harmoniously into the natural terrain. Today, nature lovers will find healthy biotopes, rare butterflies, changing red deer and adorable squirrels, a place that nature conservationists would like to see.

Findlingspark Clenzer Schweiz

Approx. 20 km

Embedded in the typical dry valleys of the terminal moraine landscape, the stone archive symbolizes more than four billion years of the earth’s history. A spiral path leads through the earth’s epochs from Cambrian to Quaternary.

Gardens and parks in the biosphere region Elbtalaue-Wendland

Approx. 6 km

At the beginning of summer in June and at the end of summer in September, private gardens in the Wendland region have been opening their doors for several years now to present their garden spaces to you. The basic idea of the Gartenträume events is of course to bring garden friends together to exchange experiences and ideas, to get advice or just to soak up pictures and to get to know people!

The Göhrde – a princely hunting ground

Approx. 30 km

The 20,000-hectare Göhrde Forest is the largest mixed forest in northern Germany. Already in the early 18th century, the region made a name for itself as a popular hunting ground for the nobility. In 1813, the Göhrde became the scene of the Göhrde Battle, which was part of the wars of liberation against the French occupation. Today, a granite obelisk not far from Oldendorf still commemorates this event. A special highlight in the Göhrde is the Field Lily Trail near Govelin.

ARTchers Lake – archery course

Approx. 71 km

The ARTchers Lake service course at Bernsteinsee near Stüde is open every weekend from 12 noon from Easter to the end of October. The Lake is suitable for both newcomers and experienced archers. Traditional archery takes place in the open air on abstract targets or animal dummies made of a special foam. Shooting is done without technical aids such as sights, because “aiming” is instinctive and is perfected through constant practice. Many of the total of about 60 targets of the ARTchers Land are lovingly self-built.

Balloon ride over the Wendland

approx. 3 km

Something special is a balloon ride in the Wendland. Leave everyday life behind and float at an altitude of about 300 m above the Elbtalaue in complete peace. Enjoy the boundless view over the large areas of untouched nature. Rundling villages and the Elbe valley can be seen from the balloon basket during a balloon launch from Lüchow. During a balloon launch from Dannenberg we also succeed in many a fascinating Elbe crossing with our balloon. It goes high up in the balloon basket and the wind drives us towards Wustrow. Salzwedel is easy to see and people have been able to watch many a balloon landing here.

Airfield Rehbeck

Approx. 7,5 km

At the Rehbeck airfield, aviation enthusiasts have the opportunity to practice or learn almost all kinds of aviation sports. For example, take a sightseeing flight in a glider or learn the basic skills of flying in a 2-week gliding camp.
