You should take your time here, simply sit on the bench and observe nature; with luck you will see numerous water birds.

An old map, still hanging in another location in the woods (see photo), confirms the bullet trap of the large firing range. The GDR is still a blank spot on the map there, the "Large Firing Range" is also marked, and we are at its end here. ✔️
