The Hellental
(Hermann Löns, 1914, excerpt)


At the entrance to the green Solling on top of the Mittelberge lies the Silberborner Moor. It stretches far between cheerful beech forests and serious fir forests. A lot of water flows out of its deep peat bog cushions, over which the white cotton grass flakes nod.

This beautiful Solling valley with its extensive farming is always worth a hike. In Hellental there is a great little museum (The Bakery). From Hellental you can explore the Solling in different directions. There is a great tour to the Mecklenbruch raised bog near Silberborn. This section is also part of the Loccum-Volkenroda pilgrimage route.

Hike with kids, rain, geocaches, lab caches, hiking treasure and lots of cows - highly recommended :-)
