One of the most beautiful hiking tours in the district of Celle leads along the Allerradweg. This path stretches for around 100 kilometres along the river Aller and offers breathtaking views of the surrounding nature. Especially in spring, when the flowers are in bloom and the birds are chirping, this route is a real treat.
Another highlight are the hiking trails around the Südheide Nature Park. The park covers an area of more than 700 square kilometres and is home to a variety of animal and plant species. Here you can hike on well-marked trails and explore the untouched ecosystem of the moorland.
For families with children, the adventure trail at the Bannetz Moor is particularly suitable. On this circular trail, children learn a lot about the local flora and fauna as well as about the moor itself in a playful way. Interactive stations turn learning into an adventure.
In autumn, we recommend a trip to the Osterwald forest. The bright colours of the deciduous trees give this area a very special atmosphere. Here you will find many well-signposted hiking routes that will take you through the autumnal nature.
Another place to go hiking is the Wietzer Berg. From here you have a breathtaking view over the surrounding countryside and can enjoy the charm of the historic town of Wietze at the same time. The hiking trails in this area are well maintained and offer a varied landscape.
In summary, the district of Celle with its diverse landscapes and natural beauty offers ideal conditions for hikes of all kinds. Whether along rivers, through idyllic moorland or to historic vantage points - everyone will find their own personal favourite route here. Especially in spring and autumn, the region shines in all its splendour and invites you to unforgettable hiking tours.
