The village oak in Kuesten is a beautiful, large pedunculate oak that provides plenty of shade. The oak is in the middle of the Kuestener Rundling (the Rundling is the oldest part of the village, which means that Kuesten is one of the many Rundling villages in the Wendland), but today Kuesten is quite a bit larger and most of the houses are outside the Rundling. There is also seating under the tree (wooden table with three benches). The oak is about 300 years old and 22 meters high. On the "Monumental Oaks" page you can find some more information about the coastal village oak: https://www.monumentale-eichen.de/niedersachsen/3-category/k%C3%BCsten/

In the southwest of the "Elbhöhen-Wendland" nature park, the richly forested hilly landscape of "Clenzer Schweiz" can be seen from afar. And on the eastern slope of this ridge there is a small geological wonder: the "Foundling Park" near Reddereitz. It is a teaching park, visual object and symbol of the history of the earth all in one. The traces of the last ice age are still clearly visible here. About 250,000 years ago, huge glaciers pushed their way from Scandinavia to what is now Wendland. Rocks were embedded in the ice masses, which, when the ice finally melted, remained in place in sometimes bizarre shapes. The rocks of different ages and sizes - from the size of a fist to a ten-ton colossus - today form the "Clenzer Schweiz Boulder Park". They impressively convey an idea of the power and importance of the geological and geomorphological processes that an ice age brings with it. The "Foundling Park Clenzer Schweiz" has the shape of a spiral, on which visitors can experience the different geological eras from the inside out. There are also examples of stone processing from the Middle Ages. Some have been sanded and polished so that the viewer is always offered new perspectives. The rocks are not just witnesses to the history of the earth, they are surprisingly alive to this day: they offer a very special habitat for animals, lichens and mosses. A visit to the "Boulder Park" is also suitable for a leisurely stop, with a picnic in the barbecue hut, on foot, by bike or on horseback. It is a special experience for young and old to immerse themselves in the millennia-old world of geology. Children can also romp and climb in the adventure area. The “Foundling Park” is open all year round and admission is free. https://region-wendland.de/machensw%C3%BCrdigkeit/findlingspark/

From the western lookout point, you have a unique view of the extraordinary diversity of the Brietz ponds. This valuable wetland habitat for migratory and breeding birds offers excellent living conditions for meadow and reedbed nesters such as marsh harriers, snipe, and water rails. White-tailed eagles, cranes, and black storks also find ample food here. In winter, northern geese and whooper swans use the waters as a roosting site. With a bit of luck, you might also spot otters and beavers, which have resettled in this area.
