Brunsberg

A 129-metre hill on the northwestern fringe of Lüneburg Heath, surrounded by a heath and woodland nature reserve.

The Brunsberg, at around 129 metres, is one of the most prominent hills on the northwestern edge of the Lüneburg Heath, near Buchholz in der Nordheide and Tostedt. It sits within the Brunsberg Nature Reserve (approximately 60 hectares), established to protect the characteristic heath and woodland landscape. The summit offers views across the North German Plain. Walking and cycling trails criss-cross the area; in late summer the heather blooms purple, making it a popular day-trip destination.
