very nice in August

Before reaching the finish line, you will pass through a short "cycling track for children"

A beautiful and varied walk.

Sometimes the remains of old fields, so-called “arched or raised fields”, have been preserved under the forest. They are usually difficult to recognise and stand out as wave-like structures with “hills” and “valleys” in the terrain. Here in Oldenstadt, these are probably relics of such structures. There are also prehistoric burial mounds directly adjacent. This question has not yet been fully answered. They are probably connected to the invention of the reversible plough: this meant that the clod of land could only be turned to one side when ploughing. It was always tipped towards the middle of the field, which then became increasingly arched in the middle - a “arched field” was created. Ploughing was done with oxen and horses. The fertile topsoil was thus held in the middle of the field, and the water could drain away in the ditch-like depressions on the side. In years that were too wet, the grain grew better in the middle of the bed, and in years that were too dry, it grew better at the edge. In the Middle Ages, all known types of grain were grown in such fields, except for corn, which only came along decades after the discovery of America: wheat, barley, rye, oats, spelt, emmer, millet, foxtail millet. Buckwheat and hemp were adopted from the Slavic region. Peas, lentils, broad beans, flax and poppy seeds were also grown. Vaulted fields have been documented since the early Middle Ages, and their origins probably date back more than 2000 years. They only survived where intensive use was not sensible later, i.e. under heath and forest. They indicate the proximity of old settlements. - https://www.heideregion-uelzen.de/detail/id=6086a6d9b3b9c34237746bde

Great view but definitely with binoculars

As on almost every heathland, the obligatory Löns stone cannot be missing here either. 😁😁😁
