Relax, slow down and discover amazing natural landscapes in Niedersachsen (Lower Saxony). Our 799 conservation areas are bigger than Berlin, Hamburg and Munich put together. That means that the surface area of our 1,281 protected areas is well over twice the size of Cornwall. Moreover, Niedersachsen boasts 14 nature parks, 2 national parks, 2 biosphere reserves, 2 UNESCO Global Geoparks and 1 UNESCO World Heritage Site. And if that’s not enough, there’s an awesome 110,996 hectares of water and over 1 million hectares of woodland.
But even these impressive figures cannot convey the breathtaking feeling at the sight of these wonders of nature, from the joy of spotting rare animals to the awe of taking in the vast countryside. This very special Niedersachsen feeling cannot be put into words – you have to experience it for yourself: whether on hikes, bike rides, in a canoe, on horseback, on cruises or carriage rides, on the heath or on the moor, in the Harz mountains or on the North Sea coast.
