A worthwhile destination at any time of year. Paths are easy to walk. Parking is often overstretched, but free. You can go on long hikes in slightly hilly terrain.

A cozy little get-together with a final visit to the sheep barn for cake and a drink 🍰☀️

With the beautiful weather, I grabbed my girl and drove to Wörme, then hiked through the beautiful Büsenbach Valley.
As a reward, I returned with ice cream at Carmellini in Holm Seppensen.

The relay race has been over for so long that I had to refresh the good memories again.🤗

Stimulated by your great reports and photos, I went with my wife to Büsenbachtal for lunch today. The phenomenal cake buffet was also available at 12 noon, 🍰🍰🍰 but we felt like something heartier.🍔🌭
