Our Story

The Luneburg Heath

Luneburg Heath, with its largest continuous heathland areas, offers a natural landscape that is unique in Central Europe. When the heath blossoms in August and September, the landscape of the Lüneburger Heide radiates its very special charm. Vivid purple of many millions of flowers, interrupted by the rich green of junipers and pines and the silvery white of birches colour the whole region.

When does the heath bloom?

If the climatic conditions remain balanced, the most common heather species Calluna vulgaris blossoms from early August to mid-September. An old Heidjer rule of thumb says: the heather blooms from 08.08. to 09.09. of a year!

Where does the heather bloom?

In the car-free nature reserve Luneburg Heath, around the Wilseder Berg, are the largest contiguous heath areas in Central Europe located. These areas have been under nature conservation since 1921. From the villages Undeloh, Egestorf, Döhle, Niederhaverbeck and Oberhaverbeck you can start wonderful hikes in this incomparable landscape.

Luneburg Heath Nature Park: In the heart of the Luneburg Heath Nature Park lies the car-free Lüneburg Heath Nature Reserve. Good starting points for a hike, bike tour or horse-drawn carriage ride in the Lüneburger Heide nature reserve are the heath villages of Niederhaverbeck, Oberhaverbeck, Döhle and Undeloh.

Nature Park Südheide: In the Southern Heath Nature Park you will find the heath areas around the heath villages of Müden (Örtze), Faßberg, Hermannsburg and Unterlüß.

Without "Heidschnucken" no heather bloom

The Heidschnucken, also called police of the heath, are essential for the heath blossom. They are a special breed of sheep with long fur and a black head. During their daily walks through the heath, they eat the shoots and small plants around the heath, giving the heather plant enough air to develop. In addition, they crush the spider nests between the heather plants, so that the heather bees can easily pollinate the flowers. A true interplay of nature.

Holidays during the heather bloom

Of course the time of the heather blossom is one of the absolute highlights in the Luneburg Heath and is therefore always well booked. We recommend booking very early. On the booking portal of the Lüneburger Heide you will find numerous holiday apartments, hotels, camping sites, and other accomodations.
