Tips from the Community
The watermill in Brome is a real gem directly on the Ohre and, together with the adjacent Mühlen-Café, makes a wonderful destination for a break when you explore the southern part of the Ohreaue. While the Ohrdorf tower windmill sits proudly in the field, the Brome watermill nestles idyllically in the river landscape.

The Ohreaue nature reserve (officially often "Ohreaue near Knesebeck and Zasenbeck") is the ecological backbone of the Wittingen region. It is a fascinating strip of nature that stretches like a green ribbon along the border between Lower Saxony and Saxony-Anhalt.

The playground has been modernized repeatedly in recent years and offers a good mix of classic and modern equipment. There are plenty of benches in the shade and in the sun, from which you have a view of the playground and the lake.

The Königgilde monument at the Ohresee is a special monument that is deeply rooted in the tradition and city history of Wittingen. While the memorial stone for the displaced persons is more reminiscent of the broad history, this monument celebrates the local community and one of the city's most important festivals: the Schützenwesen (marksmen's tradition).

The rest area with Kneipp facilities at the Ohresee in Wittingen is the perfect place to revitalize tired cyclist's calves after a bumpy ride on the Kolonnenweg or a tour through the Ohreaue. It combines nature with Sebastian Kneipp's classic health concept.

The beaver platform on the Ohreaue is a real insider tip for nature observers in the eastern part of the Gifhorn district, near the border with Saxony-Anhalt (near Ohrdorf/Radenbeck). While we tend to look at birds and water buffalo in the Ilkerbruch, here everything revolves around the largest rodent in Europe.
