The Wilseder Berg is the Lüneburg Heath's highest point. Despite being all of 169 metres high, on a clear day it has outstanding views in all directions over the heath landscape. In good conditions the spires of Hamburg are said to be visible. At the top is a brass plaque on a pedestal which indicates the direction of various cities, towns and other points of interest. The hill is only accessible on foot or by horse and cart. The nearest car parks are at Niederhaverbeck and Undeloh from where there are trails and cart rides.
Heidemuseum Wilsede
The oldest open air museum in Germany, Dat ole Huus, Low German for "that old house", nestles amongst trees in the hamlet of Wilsede on the Heath. This classic Low German house and farm was built around 1540 and renovated in 1742. It paints an accurate picture of life as a heath farmer in bygone centuries.
