Hildesheim Forest
The Hildesheim Forest is located in the Innerste Uplands, part of the Lower Saxon Hills, between the valleys of the Leine to the west, the Innerste to the north and the Lamme to the east.These densely forested hills, which are bordered to the east by the Sauberge and lie a few kilometres west-southwest of the Vorholz, fill an area south of Hildesheim, northwest of Bad Salzdetfurth, north of Sibbesse and southeast of Nordstemmen.The Hildesheim Forest, which attain a height of 359 m in the Griesberg, are crossed by numerous waterways, hiking trails and forest tracks, but only by one state road, the L 485, which links Hildesheim via Diekholzen to Sibbesse.In its northwestern part is the Beusterburg, whose circular ramparts are suggestive of a New Stone Age settlement.In the vicinity of the village of Betheln there is a Bronze Age burial site (Hügelgräberfeld).
