Wohldorfer Wald, Protected forest area in Wandsbek, Germany.

The Wohldorfer Wald contains 278 hectares of continuous deciduous forest with diverse tree species, including beech, oak, and alder groves.

The City of Hamburg acquired this woodland in the 13th century, and in 1770 it received official designation as a recreational area.

The forest serves as an educational platform where local schools conduct nature studies and environmental conservation programs throughout the year.

Visitors can access the forest by taking the U1 subway line to Ohlstedt station, followed by a short walk to the southern entrance.

The forest features 14 different bat species and four ancient woodland beetle species, along with otters, kingfishers, and black woodpeckers.
