Bench with views over the Unteres Estetal meadows

Highlight • Viewpoint

The position is 200 meters further north than shown here. The way is worth it. The bench is a little higher so you can dangle your legs, which is very good after a long distance. The wide view of the pastures is indescribably beautiful.

Higher, narrow path along the forest with a view of the Este valley. Lots of benches with a beautiful view.

Beehives

Highlight • Structure

The beehives in the lower Estetal are unmissable, they are located directly on a service path.

Take a short break here and listen to the buzzing of the 🐝 bees 🐝. Highly recommended and relaxing.

This place with the bridge was also mentioned by the local poet Johann D. Bellmann in his poems. This is literature up close ... Requirement you can be flat.

March 27, 2022,Estewanderweg - Unteres Estetal #walk4unicef
No time for hiking, no time for photos. So that at least something happens, I went on a quick lap on my "home track" today. So today there are at least ten more euros for #walk4unicef and soon more kilometers again.

Today a test for the new 👟
(somehow I can't find the right one 🤔 and with flip-flops through the autumn and winter time I probably don't get through so well).
For this I have chosen muddy paths and wet meadows in the Lower Estetal.

Again all plans discarded and back to the "home route". From Nindorf (two villages away from Buxtehude) I started my 10 kilometer lap on the Estewanderweg. When the sun goes down slowly, the piece through the forest is simply fantastic.

Fast lap on the home track. I would have thought that after all the rain there would be more muddy passages to overcome, but there was nothing that couldn't be overcome with one long step. I could see the power of the water in various washouts in the fields. Estewanderweg, recommended in any weather and at any time of the …

I don't need to describe my "home route" again, if you want to read and see more about a really recommendable route, just have a look at my tours. There aren't many photos today either. There was no time for that, because I took part in the virtual bee race in the 10km walking discipline.

Two years of "official" hiking at Komoot. My anniversary would actually be May 30th. been. My pilgrimage the day before was still in my bones, so I pushed it back a bit. I also had to make up for this year's bee run because there was no suitable ten-kilometer round on Madeira.

“D***, I forgot to charge my phone. Then quickly.” “My watch is still up, it doesn’t matter.” “No!!! Now I left the phone behind…”

I started today's tour with these three thoughts. Without a phone means without a Komoot and without a GPS watch. So completely free of technology. Since I could hike the route in my sleep, the path …

Today we got a little foretaste 😋 of what awaits us at the end of April 😁.

Start and finish was a great parking lot 🚗 opposite the mill 👍

Mainly on forest roads 😶 we first went along the Herrgottweg: small lakes 🦢 and endless expanses 👁 of gently hilly lands were waiting for us.🤩
