Nature reserve Hainisch Iland

  • Hainisch Iland
    © Viridi Silva

Well-signposted hiking and walking trails lead through the old rural cultural landscape. Pastures, meadows and fields, orchards and the wooded valley of the Alster tributary give the landscape an idyllic touch.

In spring the fruit trees blossom, in summer wildflowers dot the meadows and in autumn the yellow of the cornfields shines. In between are old beech and oak trees, hedges and groups of deciduous woodland through which the Saselbek, a tributary of the Alster, babbles. It's no wonder that numerous water birds and amphibians feel at home here.

CITY AREA PORTRAIT Hamburg North

Hamburg North is a wonderful place to live. The city centre can be reached in no time, and there is plenty of nature nearby. Everything goes at a slightly slower pace here. But there are still many things to see and do.
