Driving through the Borgfelder Wümmewiesen is always a pleasure. This vastness, the green, grazing cows and now and then the Wümme, nature the way I like it.

The vast meadows and pastures with isolated herds of suckler cows fascinated me and conjured up the term "North German Prairie" in my head.

Absolutely great area if, like me, you are just starting to cycle again and are no longer the youngest, but you should always listen carefully and pay attention to which direction the noise of agricultural machinery is coming from and head towards the edge of the road, they like to run here with theirs monster tractors
