    Hiking

    On the Hümmer Hute we find some knotty beeches. A bench allows for a leisurely break with a view of Hümme and the Diemeltal.

    There are some 200-year-old, gnarled hornbeam trees on the Hümmer Hute 🌳
    A beautiful place with a view of the surrounding mountains.
    Particularly beautiful at sunset.

    Here are picturesque, beautiful old trees in (in the evening) wonderful backlight with a fantastic view of the landscape below.

    A "Hut" is a forest in which people (formerly) kept cattle that fed on the fruit and twigs and sometimes the bark of these trees. This browsing of the trees means that they often develop unusual irregular growth forms. Oaks and beeches are typical hat trees. Here in the Hümmer Hute there are 14 hornbeam trees that are up to 200 years old and apparently also provide good food for animals.
