Those who long for peace and nature should use this hiking trail into the “Mansholter Büsche”. The forest area covers 330 hectares and is a historically old oak and hornbeam forest of outstanding importance for nature conservation. The Geest carries valuable forest communities. The location is on nutrient-rich, water-retaining "Lauenburg clay". The natural diversity is based on blown sands as well as moor and floodplain formation, which lead to mosaic-like site conditions. The forest (220 hectares) is managed in a natural and sustainable manner, striving for biodiversity, diversity of age and gradation The aim of this management is an ecologically stable forest.
Author’s recommendation
It is worth taking a detour to the nearby rhododendron park of the Bruns tree nursery in Gristede.
