Hexentanzplatz Maiburg

Highlight • Natural Monument

Unfortunately, I haven't found out why it's called that.
It is believed that witches sit on the stones, which are arranged in a circle around a tree stump, at night and celebrate their dances there

Maiburg Forest Monoliths and Sun Terrace

Highlight • Natural Monument

In addition to the Dalum megalithic grave, there are some other remnants of very early settlements and beliefs in the Maiburg forest area. There are many legends and sagas surrounding the area that are still told in the area today. In addition to monoliths, which are said to have been a pagan place of worship, there are also the "Hexentreppe" and the "Teufelsstein". All evidence of a long past epoch. The names come from the designation of later centuries. Paganism was often equated with devil cults and the like and presented in a very negative sense. The Maiburg is likely to have been a central point of Neolithic life.

February 5, 2026,Hunenweg etappe 5 van Ankum naar Bippen

Today was another white world. It had snowed last night, so it was even whiter than yesterday. And thankfully, the light snow made all the roads passable again. It does feel like we're more on a winter sports holiday than hiking, though. With a pair of skis, you could easily go on some lovely hikes. Deeper in the forest, it …

Before we set off, we visited the town of Ankum, with its St. Nicholas Church, the Pastorengang, and the Ankum Lakes.
Then we continued through hilly countryside with extensive forests. It drizzled all morning. We passed a Kneipp footbath and the Mooshütte (Moos Hut).
We also passed fields of corn and wheat. It smelled of chamomile and fresh rain.
We …
