A wonderful viewing platform with a fantastic view of the Mecklenbruch raised bog. Various interesting information panels are also present. It's very beautiful in August/September with the blooming heather.

Mecklenbruch Raised Bog

Highlight • Natural

Very nice, especially in autumn with the bright colors. It's fun to drive along the Holzweg. The Silberborn MTB course is nearby. Can be combined well.

On the way back from the grandchildren, a detour to the Solling.
Silberborn is always a good starting point for a hike through the Solling with high moor, high ropes course, game reserve, road of songs and along beautiful carved wooden figures.

Today we went on a hike through, around, and along the raised bog in Mecklenbruch. The hike ended once again at Gollarts, a regional and country-style coffee shop, which I highly recommend! 🥰🍮🧈🍰🧁🍭🍩🍨🍦 I've included a map showing how you can find it:

The air is crisp and frosty. The snow crunches underfoot. We enjoy the winter sun on our walk through the moor. Wonderful.

After the kids and I climbed extensively in TreeRock, we did a little tour through the high moor.
I've never been here myself and was immediately impressed by the nature and the tranquility (in contrast to my daughter, who found the hike totally annoying and actually wanted to turn back after the first kilometer 😬)

Due to a closure on the original route, we unfortunately had to change our plans and walk part of it back. But it was still a great tour with lots of beautiful impressions.
