In the south of the Döhler Wehe nature reserve, the Sieke River flows as a near-natural geest stream with natural riparian vegetation. We follow its course for a short stretch.

Until I passed the stone I did not know about the peculiarity

Three megalithic tombs once lay close together here - with the names: "Huntlosen1, 2 and 3". Only the remains of Huntlosen 1 can be found here - once a large stone tomb. The others have been destroyed. The preserved grave Huntlosen 1 The tomb is also known as the "Wittenhöge megalithic tomb" or the "giant bed". In 1930, Ernst Sprockhoff was able to identify a burial chamber oriented roughly east-west, about 14 meters long and two meters wide. There were twelve stones. Today the tomb is in poor condition. The stones described by Sprockhoff are still there, but most of them are no longer in their original location. Cover stones are no longer there. The destroyed grave Huntlosen 2 The second tomb is also known as the "Hosüner Büsche megalithic tomb" or "Heidkamp megalithic tomb". The tomb suffered its first major damage after the First World War at the latest, when two stones were removed for the construction of a war memorial in Sandkrug. Further destruction occurred at the end of the 1930s during the construction of Hegeler-Wald-Straße. In 1952, another large stone was used to expand the war memorial in Sandkrug. In 1955, only a large capstone remained. This was probably removed in 1972 when extensive cleanup work and the construction of drainage channels in the forest became necessary after a major storm. The destroyed Huntlosen 3 grave It was discovered during drainage work and examined in 1934/1935. It was subsequently completely destroyed. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gro%C3%9Fsteingr%C3%A4ber_bei_Huntlosen#Das_erhaltene_Grab_Huntlosen_1

This small pond is really very hidden, and probably hardly anyone "strays" here by accident. In the warm afternoon sun you can take a short break here and enjoy the silence!
