Golf on courses in several formats, signposted hiking trails and historic buildings shape the options in Lüdersburg. The town also offers riding trails and a location in the western part of the „Niedersächsische Elbtalaue“ Biosphere Reserve. This makes it easy to tailor your stay to different interests: the golf facilities, local history and outdoor activities each offer a distinct starting point.
Golf on courses in several formats
The Schloss Lüdersburg golf facility has two 18-hole golf courses and a 4-hole public course. Guests are welcome too. The number of holes gives you a clear point of reference when choosing between the course formats.
Practice facilities include a TRACKMAN 4 indoor golf facility and a driving range with several pitching and putting greens and 80 hitting bays. The playing options and practice areas are different parts of the golf offering. Before visiting, check the current availability of the indoor facility and practice areas.
Manor House and St Peter and St Paul’s Church
The manor house in Lüdersburg, built in 1775, is a half-timbered building and one of the outstanding cultural monuments of the former Principality of Lüneburg. It is privately owned and not generally open to the public. Do not plan to visit the interior as a freely accessible attraction.
The nave and choir of St Peter and St Paul’s Church in Lüdersburg tell a different architectural story: they were built in the 15th century in Late Gothic forms that are now barely recognizable. Together, the dates of the buildings mentioned here span from the 15th century to the manor house, built in 1775; the manor house is privately owned and not generally open to the public.
Hiking trails, nature and horse riding
If you want to explore on foot, you can follow the well-signposted hiking trails in Lüdersburg; a hiking map can help. For horse riding, there is a riding hall and extensive riding trails. Hiking and horse riding are two different local ways to spend time outdoors.
Lüdersburg’s location in the western part of the „Niedersächsische Elbtalaue“ Biosphere Reserve is another geographical point of interest. This adds the town’s location within the named protected area to its specific local attractions.
More to explore in the wider Lüneburg travel destination
In the wider Lüneburg travel destination, archaeological and geological attractions can be found elsewhere: the megalithic tombs in Schieringer Forst, between Barskamp and Walmsburg, were built during the Neolithic period, between 3000 and 2300 BC. A circular hiking trail leads from Walmsburg village square to the tombs. The boulder circle at Breetze, in the Bleckede district, displays boulders that bear witness to the glacial formation of the Elbe Urstrom Valley. It is freely accessible, and parking is available; check the latest access and parking information before your visit.
Guided tours of Lüneburg’s city and town hall showcase gabled and brick houses, old lanes and the water quarter. An observation platform in Lüneburg’s water tower is 56 m high and offers views over Lüneburg and the surrounding area. The water tower hosts classical concerts at 8 pm on the first Sunday of every month and on every full moon. Check the specific concert dates before your trip.
Amelinghausen offers two circular walks of different lengths: the route around Lopausee and through Lopaupark is 2.2 km long and is suitable for jogging, walking and Nordic walking. The Queen’s Trail is an 11-kilometre circular hiking trail around the heath village of Amelinghausen. Comparing the lengths can help you choose between the two routes described.
