    Tips

    I always get goosebumps when I can just drive through places like this where there used to be nowhere else to go. The cycle path is still usable in Lower Saxony, but in Saxony-Anhalt you switch to the road early. Unless you really want some kind of time travel experience ;-)

      The old Zausel still know the watchtowers live and ugly. Luckily the young hoppers didn't have to put up with the crap anymore
