Directions

The Haverbeeke heath loop begins at the Menke inn. The path winds through the heath in large bends down to the Haverbeeke. Burial mounds are hidden beneath the inconspicuous hilltops in the heath.

The Haverbeeke. A typical heath stream in an exceptionally beautiful heath valley. The sand shines brightly beneath the clear water. A few alders and pines line the course. Meadows to the left and right of the stream, which turn into heath at the start of the slope. Coming from the Wilseder Berg, the Haverbeeke has formed the Heidetal valley over thousands of years. On the last kilometer, the stream flows in a few bends towards the Wümme.

The path is easy to walk on. Fine gravel. Also suitable for walkers and wheelchairs. The Heideschleife crosses the Haverbeeke, which has formed a slightly marshy terrain here on the last, very flat meters before the Wümme.

On the other side of the valley, the trail now climbs back up to Niederhaverbeck, right next to the old connecting path to Schneverdingen. Below the Haverbeckhof lies the Haverbeeke pond, surrounded by trees. Take a breather on one of the benches. Cross the bridge and then through the small forest with old oak trees. At an acute angle, the path branches off upwards and leads in a wide arc up to the starting point.
