During the rhododendron blossom from April to June, the Ammerland park landscape is transformed into a sea of flowers. The 190-kilometre "Gardens and Castles" themed tour takes in imposing castle parks in Gödens and Jever and lovingly tended private gardens. A special highlight of the tour is the "Rhodo" in Westerstede from 17 to 26 May. Every four years, the town presents itself in all its floral splendour.
