호덴하겐‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪12‬개의 천연기념물

There is an information sign on the hiking trail pointing to the burial mounds in the Krelinger Heide. Simply walk a few meters into the forest at the height of the sign, then the attentive observer can see the grave mounds piled up on the forest floor.

So leather didn't work for me.

The water has to be fetched by a virgin on Easter before sunrise for it to be effective - locals at the well told us

We met locals at the well - they said that a virgin has to fetch the water before sunrise on Easter for it to "work"

A great route to drive in a beautiful landscape.

A nice overview of the leash. Directly behind the Bothmer mill. Unfortunately, I couldn't get directly to the water at this point because the shore was fenced off with pasture fences.

A small but beautiful heath area in the middle of the forest. You can drive directly to this heath area via the adjacent dirt road.

"It is said that early on Easter Sunday morning a group of people go to the fountain of youth in Eckernworth before breakfast," reports Rudolf Meyer, head of the forest restaurant. "Silent. It is not allowed to talk.” The small spring of the fountain of youth, which is located in the immediate vicinity of the swan pond on the edge of a footpath, still gives off clear water today. The hikers wash themselves with it and believe that this is why they will stay healthy this year as well. And then Easter can really begin for the group. Monika Seidel, who is responsible for the Heath Museum in Walsrode, reports: "My mother told me that she took water from the Fulde, which flows through the Eckernworth, and drank it. That's why I know this Easter custom from Walsrode." Source: https://www.kreiszeitung.de/lokales/heidekreis/walsrode-ort54343/schluck-jungbrunnen-12205257.html
