Brunsberg, Mountain bench in Lüneburger Heide Natural Park, Germany.

Located at 129 meters elevation, the Brunsberg bench provides views over forests, heather fields, and the surrounding nature reserve spanning 131 hectares.

The name Brunsberg originates from a tragic incident involving two shepherds, where one named Bruns died while playing a game during sheep herding.

The bench sits in an area where sheep, known as Heidschnucken, maintain the traditional landscape by grazing on the heather-covered slopes.

Visitors can reach the bench by following hiking trails from Sprötze train station, with the shortest circular route measuring 3.5 kilometers.

During heather blooming season, the bench offers views of purple landscapes extending toward Wilseder Berg and the Johanneskirche tower in Tostedt.
