The Este makes a bend here. From a bench you have a very nice view.

The old railway embankment from Buchholz towards Bremervörde has unfortunately been taken out of service. The brick bridges, however, remain and some of them are in the middle of the forest. In some cases you can even drive along the former railway embankment, which is a lot of fun.

A wonderful path along the Este valley. The river and landscape are still largely untouched. In many places there are wonderful views over the valley
