The Harburg Hills form a landscape of hilly forests, heaths and farmland. In the extreme north of this hill country, where they are called The Black Hills (Die Schwarzen Berge) and are very rugged for North Germany, may be found the nature reserves of the Fischbeker Heide and Neugrabener Heide as well as the Schwarze Berge Deer Park. The southern end of these hills is called the Lohberge.
