Vossberge (Everinghausen Shifting Dunes)

A real gem is hidden here. Former wandering dunes would probably not have been expected here. It's worth a visit.

This is a wonderful stretch to "come down". Sometimes sheer endless expanses and no people, no noise, but we saw a wide variety of bird species, deer, even a mole. The consistently wide paths are also easy to walk, so good for couples 😉

Not sure if my favorite route in the Wümme lowlands can be walked on again after the flood, I tried it today. Functions.
Again, the light was a monumental challenge. The announced Sahara dust made the sun visible as if through a pane of frosted glass, making the colors a little harder and the contours softer. When running, the sense …

We are here II

the east winds are falling
no more
Wolf bricks are silent

Forests are sloping gray to the vanishing
light

Thoughts crunch like snow
under soles
beyond that no
noise

I'll walk to the edge of the world and say it
according to us
are here

under the same
the only one
moon

My little grandson has now hiked the fourth North Trail with his grandma... but here is only a partial section...

Today is the day. The last few kilometers of the North Path are being hiked. I had divided the North Path Wümmeniederung into three circular tours. So today is the final section, and it bids me farewell with its sheer beauty.

Not the complete Nordpfad, but so far so good. Unfortunately, you can't see the Wümme that often.

The legend today was "Intemann's farm shop", potatoes, eggs, onions, tomatoes ..... and then, you won't believe it, I'm just glued to the Wümme! Nothing to do! 😉

So that I could stop this route again, I thought there would be a different series of photos than usual.
