Birch Trees by the Path in Naturpark Südheide

Highlight (Segment) • Forest

Especially in spring, the birches shine in bright green and form a wonderful backdrop with their white trunks. The heather bloom is a great contrast to the purple blooming heather area.

The route offers a lot of heathland with juniper, birch and pine forest on sandy paths. Only the last kilometer leads back to the car park on asphalt. All in wonderful silence and right now the scent of heather is still in the air🐝👍

September 7, 2021,Auf den Spuren des Goldes der Heide- Kieselgur

In between there were also lots of blueberries 🫐 to be …

Wonderful air and a pleasant path 🙃
