View into the birch forest

Highlight • Forest

Birch trees are the first pioneer trees in the moor: they are the first to colonize the damp areas and prepare the soil for other plants. Here they stand like a silent vanguard in the moorland landscape.

Hagen Castle

Highlight • Castle

After the Probsteierhagen community acquired the manor house, the building was used as a primary school. Since the construction of the village community school in 1969, the manor house has made a name for itself as the “cultural center of the Probstei.”

Parallel Clay Path

Highlight • Trail

It's not quite clear to me why there is a slightly higher clay path next to the actual hiking trail. But it's never a question of which path I would choose.

Root mounds in the forest

Highlight • Forest

Here in the forest there are at least a dozen mounds of earth about 1/2 m high.
Upon closer examination, I was able to determine that these were former root mountains from fallen trees. From the looks of it it must have been the only storm as they are all the same estimated age.
