Volksdorfer Teichwiesen

The Volksdorfer Teichwiesen spans 30 hectares of wetlands, featuring two ponds and two streams flowing through meadows bordered by large trees.

The site contained a large pond until 1882 that powered local mills, after which the land was used for grazing before the current ponds were created in 1911.

The nature reserve functions as an educational center where visitors learn about local biodiversity and participate in environmental protection programs.

The Hamburg CARD provides access to public transportation and discounts for visitors who want to explore the reserve and surrounding attractions.

The geological formation represents one of Hamburg's last tunnel valleys, created during the Weichselian glaciation through meltwater processes.
