The Tree Top Walk Heide Heaven is a spectacular nature attraction right next to the Wildpark Lüneburger Heide. It offers visitors a unique experience: landscape, wildlife, and education combined on an accessible path high above the ground.

Experience Highlights

• The path stretches for about 700 meters and gently ascends with a slight incline, partially going directly over the animal enclosures – allowing visitors to observe wolves and big cats from an airy perspective.

• At the end, there is a nearly 40-meter high observation tower with a large viewing platform and a passenger elevator – ideal for strollers and people with limited mobility.

• There are more than 20 learning and environmental stations along the way that provide knowledge about the flora, fauna, and ecology of the Lüneburger Heide.

• Since March 2024, there is a special highlight: the Skywalk “Tiger View”: an eight-meter-long glass platform at a height of 20 meters that offers a 360-degree view over the forest and the tiger enclosure – a safe, yet thrilling experience.
