A beautiful place to take a break.

The trail has some climbs and descents. The slabs have holes in them, making it quite bumpy, but the trail is quite easy to ride.

A detour from the circular trail to the ancient and mighty Hutebuche is worthwhile. Hudewälder (forests), also called Hutewald (forests), are an ancient form of forest management in which livestock were driven into the forest for grazing ("hutting"). The pigs and cattle ate beechnuts, acorns, and herbs, thus preventing natural forest regeneration. Only a few, now very old and mighty trees with spreading crowns remained standing. However, another traditional farming forest use, the "Krattwald" (forest), seems to have led to the emergence of this Hutebuche. According to this, it was "cut back to the stump" every 15 to 20 years, resulting in increasingly voluminous new shoots. The harvest had a variety of uses: the bark was used for tanning, the wood as building material and fuel, and the leaves as fodder and bedding for livestock. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hutebaum

With an area of around six hectares, the Laaver Moor is the largest remaining raised bog in the Elbe valley. It is fed exclusively by rainwater, which is why it is also called a rainwater bog.

There is a memorial plaque for Friedegart Belusa here. Friedegart Belusa (1915-1996), an East Prussian, looked after the railway mission for more than 25 years, a joint facility of the Protestant and Catholic churches. The station in Büchen was not a normal train station. For hundreds of thousands of people, it became the first port of call in the West. Between 1955 and 1959, almost a quarter of a million emigrants came, as well as 50,000 Berlin children who were supposed to recover in Schleswig-Holstein and, from 1964, pensioners from the GDR who were allowed to travel to the West to visit. Up to 160 adults and 140 young people, most of them volunteers, distributed food and drinks, helped the disabled, made phone calls to authorities and let travelers stay overnight. Friedegart Belusa was awarded the Federal Cross of Merit in 1982 for her services. A street in Büchen has also been named after her. (Source: Lauenburger Landeszeitung from 24.8.2014)
