Small heathland area near Lutterloh... right at the beginning there are several erratic boulders... an information board locates these in the Ice Age and provides further details

Beautiful heathland surrounded by magnificent forest... the path leads through this idyllic landscape with gentle ups and downs... especially during the heather bloom, a force of nature

Remains of historic farms with large, roofed sheep pens... Nice look back into the past

Beautiful lake with numerous seating areas inviting you to linger... Although it is surrounded by the foothills of Müden on both sides, it feels like you are completely in nature here...

Not only the historic mill is an eye-catcher, but the Örtze, flowing quietly at this point, is also very idyllic.

The Misselhorner Heide is one of the most typical heath landscapes in the Südheide. Characteristic of this area are the wide heathlands, juniper bushes, and birches that shape the landscape. The heath is particularly impressive during the heather bloom from August to September, when the areas transform into a sea of purple colors. Compared to the better-known heath areas near Wilsede, the Misselhorner Heide is considered quieter and less visited. The German landscape painter Arnold Lyongrün was also inspired by this landscape and captured it in numerous heath paintings, which made the area known beyond the region.
