Dead Forest on Nasser Weg

Highlight • Forest

Unfortunately, a sad highlight on the Nassen Weg. Here, especially during storms, extreme caution is required. The dead spruce trees have lost their stability and are now increasingly bending over.

Carved Beech Tree at the East Shore of Sösetalsperre

Highlight • Natural Monument

Some people have probably immortalized themselves here and carved something into the trunk. This beech tree can be found on the east bank of the Sösetalsperre.

May 7, 2022,Wanderung Köte Schindelkopf/Hans-Kühnen Burg

Beautiful tour, with the best weather. The starting point was the Black Bridge car park in Osterode (signs to the Wildvogel station). The car park at the former blind sanatorium is closed, entry prohibited . Later it goes on a very nice path to managed Hans-Kühnen Burg.All in all a very nice and recommendable tour.
