Alte Moorhütte

Nestled along the scenic circular trail near the lake, Alte Moorhütte is a charming café and restaurant that celebrates the flavours and traditions of northern Germany. Its extensive menu features authentic regional specialities, with the homemade brawn standing out as a guest favourite. The combination of hearty German cuisine and a serene natural setting makes it a perfect stop for walkers, cyclists, and anyone seeking a relaxing break in the countryside. What began in 1927 as a small refreshment kiosk has, over the decades, evolved into a welcoming destination for locals and travellers alike. In a delightful nod to nature, a majestic oak tree that once stood on the grounds was preserved and built into the restaurant’s structure instead of being cut down – a gesture that reflects the establishment’s respect for its surroundings. With its inviting coffee garden, peaceful atmosphere, and authentic hospitality, Alte Moorhütte offers both the taste and the feeling of rural Lower Saxony – where good food, history and nature come together in harmony.
