A beautiful circular path through the heath with the beginning of the flowering period.

And in the right place at the right time, we stood in the midst of 480 (!) Heidschnucke, which the shepherd drove into the thatched stable with his dogs and whistles.

We had to say goodbye to the North Sea today. To stretch our legs on the way home, we stopped in this beautiful heath village. Very idyllic, although the noise of the motorway carries far. Unfortunately, we lost our way just before the end.
