The trail runs along the state border between Hesse and Lower Saxony, so you'll see a particularly large number of beautiful 19th-century border stones. These were erected by the predecessor states, the Electorate of Hesse (KFH) and the Kingdom of Hanover (KH).

Along the way you can see several still preserved boundary stones that mark the former border in 1838 between the Electorate of Hesse (KFH) and the Kingdom of Hanover (KH).
