Hochheide Nature Reserve Neuer Hagen

Highlight • Natural

While this area was still a treeless tundra around 10,000 years ago, forests conquered large parts of the region with the subsequent warming. Only in some places has the tundra vegetation survived or been favored by grazing animals and the subsequent impoverishment of the soils. This is particularly evident and impressive in the moors and on some rocks at the highest elevations. There you will find the sparse dwarf forests amidst heathlands. Beautiful.

Niedersfeld High Heath

Highlight • Natural

The landscape in the Neuer Hagen nature reserve is unique. A nice open area with lots of views. In late summer the colorful Besenheide, in winter when there is snow it is a beautiful cross-country skiing area.

Hochheide Hut, Niedersfeld

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The wooden hut beckons you to take a break at a lofty height. The restaurant is located at 805 meters, very close to the highest mountain in North Rhine-Westphalia - the Langenberg.

The fresh delicacies from the Hochheidehütte taste particularly good in the idyllic heath landscape. The hut team will spoil you with delicious food, grandma's country cakes and fresh waffles.

A good herbal liqueur and a Veltins on tap are a must, but be careful - otherwise you will miss the onward journey through the wonderful heath landscape. ;)
