Description & Map
Summary
Von Mitte August bis Anfang September blühen die Heideflächen und machen einen Spaziergang zu einem besonderen Erlebnis.
Description
The landscape is rich in special biotope types such as wet and dry heathland, lowland and deciduous forest, nutrient-poor grassland, spring moors and forest meadows. This is why there is also a wide variety of plants that have specialised in the different habitats. The characteristic plant of the Fischbeker Heath is the dwarf shrub species broom heath (so called because the plants were used to make brooms). Around 300 different animal species live exclusively in, on and around the extensive broom heath: beetles, insects and – with the largest population in Hamburg – the sand lizard. On fine days, these reptiles can often be seen sunbathing or hunting in the heath bushes along the edges of the paths.
