In bad weather, there is a shelter. At the crossroads, there are information boards, including for trails. You rarely stand around alone for more than 5 minutes here,

As of February 28, 2026, the beaver trail is barely recognizable, especially in the upper section, where it is almost impossible to find. The situation is further complicated by the presence of fallen trees and debris blocking the way.

Every cross reminds us of the suffering and death of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, who became human out of love for us. At the same time, however, such a small sacred monument is always also a Christian symbol of redemption and the Easter hopeful perspective of the 'eternal life' that awaits us after death. "Eternal life, after all, attempts to give a name to the great unknown through faith," Christiane Völker once wrote, and continues: "We... then sense that this eternity is not just another succession of calendar days, but something like a fulfilled moment of immersion in the infinite love of God, in which there is no time, no before, and no after."
