Tips

Hiking

Here are the remains of the old Hutewald on Hemschenberg. Ancient beeches characterize the picture. They used to be a resting and shady place for the shepherds. The small trees were eaten by the cattle, so that the Hutewald consists more and more of old trees and no replacement trees were grown. There is also a stamp office for the Touringer.
