Lopau, Luhe, and Prehistoric Burial SitesThis tour offers plenty of water, heathland, and culture. The Lopau and Luhe rivers run alongside the two long-distance hiking trails, Heidepuzzle and Lila Krönung, on their respective first stages as they head east. The landscape is varied, featuring heathland as well as several prehistoric burial sites with artifacts dating from the Neolithic through the Iron Age. With the exception of a short section near Soderstorf, both long-distance hiking trails follow the same route.

Schwindebeck Heath and spring as well as diatomaceous earth pondsThis hike consists of two loops of equal length with a much-vaunted natural wonder as the intersection: the Schwindebach spring - with 60 liters of water per second, it is said to be the second most powerful spring in Lower Saxony after the Rhume spring in the Harz Mountains. Other highlights are the diatomaceous earth pits and the Schwindebeck Heath, the former formed by the decomposition of deposited algae shells. Diatomaceous earth was used for filter and filling materials.

Multi-stage Hike into the Eastern Lüneburg HeathThis hike follows the second stages of the Heidepuzzle and Lila Krönung long-distance trails from Soderstorf eastward into the Lüneburg Heath; both trails largely follow the same route. The scenic highlight is the Schwindebecker Heath. Shortly before the finish, the long-distance trails diverge in the Hörpeler Heath: “Lila Krönung” continues straight ahead toward Wilsede, while this hike follows the “Heidepuzzle” trail through the Hörpeler Heath and across the Schmale Aue to the endpoint at Egestorf, where Wilhelm Bode served as pastor from 1886 to 1923. In front of the church, a bust by the Harburg sculptor Uta Falter-Baumgarten commemorates the former heath pastor.
