This section is very demanding for touring bikes and not recommended. There are better ways to reach the path along the Geestrandgraben.

Melkhus Bürstel has a beautiful garden with seating under the trees. The quark dream with fresh strawberries is a delight.

Today the alpacas were not directly on the road, so you could only see them from a distance.

The Huder Bach stream powers the monastery mill in Hude, at least it used to. It is idyllically situated on the Huder Bach stream, in a setting with the monastery ruins, the monastery tavern, and the villa and garden of the von Witzleben family.

Today, the watermill was open. Whit Monday is Mill Day, and every year, many mills are open to visitors. It's worth a visit, especially if there are explanations about the mill and the milling trade.
