Steinhuder Meer Nature Park

The nature park derives its name from northwest Germany's largest inland sea at the heart of the park, the 30-odd square kilometre Steinhuder Meer. The northern boundary of the nature park is formed by the Aller valley, its eastern by the Leine valley, its southern by the Mittelland canal and its western by the Weser valley. But there's a lot more to the nature park than just the sea. Extensive moorlands, broad "Geest" sandy moorland ridges, grassland, woods, the northern fingers of the central mountain range and the neighbouring river valleys have made the park with its variety of landscape into a place of relaxation enjoyed by visitors from far and wide.

Many visitors are drawn to the Steinhuder Meer, particularly in the summer months, by the magical attraction of water, and the opportunity to bathe, sail, windsurf or go boating. The beach on the White Dune on the north bank and the bathing island on the south bank are great starting points for bathers and sun-seekers.
