The picturesque moated castle is privately owned, so it can not be visited. But also from outside worth a look at the castle. Especially nice: On sunny days, the castle is reflected in the water of the moat.

This morning we went to Schloss Holte in the forest, partly along the Ölbach.
It was a nice round without any great demands.
The last 600m were not that nice, because the path was quite overgrown and you had the choice of being pricked by 1.70m high nettles or blackberry prickles * sigh *
