Hoesseringen
Hösseringen
The resort town "Hoesseringen" is the tourism capital of Suderburg Land. It is idyllically situated in an end moraine landscape defined by the last Ice Age and is home to 600 inhabitants. Seemingly endless woodlands lie on Hoesseringen’s borders and the Hardau, a small stream from the heath, winds its way through the green valley meadows. Idyll and nature play BIG roles here, but there are also many other excursion destinations in Suderburg Land that are definitely worth a visit.
The holiday region "Suderburg
Land" lies to the south-west of the Uelzen heath region on the
outskirts of Suedheide heath. Here you’ll find attractive excursion
destinations in beautiful scenery and romantic heath villages.
The Museum Village Hoesseringen features
27 buildings set up as a typical scattered village. Chickens cackle, geese and
ducks quack on the village pond and sheep graze on the heath. On activity days
you can watch the smith at work in his forge, hear the sound of the
reciprocating saw, see the steam engine from 1913 drive the thresher and watch
the sewing and weaving work in the blue barn. There are also permanent
exhibitions on the country life of the past 400 years.
Lake Hardausee has a surface area of some 80,000 m²
and is ideal for swimming, paddle-boating, fishing and relaxing in the
sunshine.
You can become an aquatic expert on the Hardautal
water experience trail. You will find illustrated information boards and
fun stations for children along the 53 km trail that features different
navigable circular routes.
Schooten Forest History Trail features many interesting facts about the
forest depicted at 12 stations in the form of cartoons by Marunde. The 3.2 km
long trail leads through wonderful old beech populations and a beautiful mixed
forest.
You can enjoy glorious views from a height of
32 metres from Hoesseringen observation tower. Four
signposted circular trails for walkers and hikers start from the observation
tower with varying lengths from 3.1 to 8.4 km.
The Landtagsplatz near Hoesseringen commemorates
Lueneburg’s estates that assembled in Schooten from 1532 to 1652.
Ellerndorf juniper heath has a surface area of 70 hectares and is
the largest single heath area in the Uelzen region. The heath is maintained by
one of the largest remaining herd of moorland sheep.
A 5-star camp site on Lake Hardausee,
comfortable holiday apartments, cosy private rooms and guest houses look
forward to your visit. Let yourself be spoiled and enjoy regional and
international specialities in one of the numerous restaurants.
