Rhododendronroute

The Ammerland is the center of rhododendron breeding in Germany. Nowhere else is this amount and variety to be found. In the flowering period from the end of April to the beginning of June, the evergreen plants add white, pink or red spots to the unique park landscape. The rhododendron route connects the three large rhododendron parks in Ammerland and offers many colorful views of countless rhododendrons on the 47 kilometer route, which can be discovered on the right and left in the private gardens.
