The small shelter is modeled after a historic beehive... inside, a historic beehive illustrates a bee colony and its individual inhabitants... right next to the shelter, you can also get the corresponding stamp for your hiking pass.

The path leads gently up and down through the beautiful heathland... a magnificent sight, especially during the flowering season... with luck you might spot the Heidschnucken sheep.
