アルテンベケンの滝・トップ5

Every now and then a small stream trickles through the forest and then crosses the forest road. Nice to see.

Listen! We're still in the Höxter district ;) No, joking aside, well written!

Nice to look at. A nice place for a little break, to cool off, ...

The rivulets that flow from the slope repeatedly form small waterfalls that can be admired from the side of the path. Modest, inconspicuous, but perfect in its "miniature" appearance. Just as it should be in Lipperland.

The waterfall is small but nice. 😅

In this cut in the hillside, which was made by iron mining, water emerges from the rocky subsoil in three places. It flows in small rivulets into a dammed pond. The spring basin was created by an open-cast mine over four hundred years ago. According to tradition, two railway workers from Altenbeken gave the spring its name because they regularly chose this place for a leisurely rest on their hikes. These two were real Altenbeken originals. They were known to the locals as a funny couple, as "Max and Moritz".

At this point / I would like to quickly / say something about the source: To quote the incomparable humorist Heinz Erhardt (1909 - 1979), who was known to a wide audience for his word jokes and "Noch'n poem", with a short quatrain: "There is certainly much beauty in on the element, the wet. Because you can drink the water. But you can - also leave it." (H.Erhardt)

A small stream delta with a small waterfall and a rustic one-tree bridge to cross the stream.
