In France I got to know ostrich meat for the first time.
It really is a recommendation.
Low in cholesterol and so tasty that you only need a little salt and you can do without pepper and other spices.

After the 6 pilgrimage routes in Gottsbühren were combined in a new and different way, we decided on circular route 1 today. The start and finish was at the Keßpfuhl car park. The path runs on both sides through the Holzapetal to the Wülmersen moated castle, so it doesn't matter which side you hike on first. A nice round that …

Today is exactly the right tour for me to "just let myself go": feet and thoughts and feel more strength with every step. On other days I would certainly have classified the tour as boring - on one side of the creek, always straight ahead and on the other side back, always straight ahead. But today is just right for …

From the Keßpfuhl hiking car park, we followed circular route 1, always above the Holzape. From time to time there was access to the stream, which Jette liked very much.
We found the Wülmersen moated castle interesting, where we also stopped for a rest in the Cafe Mehlschwalbe.
Passing the ostrich farm, we then went on the other side of …

We were out and about in the Reinhardswald today and walked through the Holzapetal to the Wülmersen moated castle 🐾👣

At the beginning of the tour everything was still white, but as the day progressed it started to thaw more and more.

Return to Cuxland, Day 2. Today's hiking stop took us to the Hessian corner of the Weser Uplands. In frosty -4°C weather and with the sun gradually breaking through, we hiked along the Holzape Valley. The Holzape is a natural stream that branches out merrily and meanders picturesquely through the valley. Unfortunately, the slopes to the left and right of …

I spend 3 days with 12 adults and 7 children (my brother's "substitute family") in Wülmersen moated castle. Just fantastic to cook, eat and laugh with so many people. Today I offered a little hike and won three fellow hikers while the others were at a zoo with the children. The vegetation here is far behind that of ours. The …

I actually wanted to hike from the Holzapequelle to the influence in the Diemel near Wülmersen. Since my stomach was giving me slight problems and my knee didn't really want to, I only hiked part of the way. At the Keßpfuhl hiking car park near Gottsbüren we walked along a solid gravel path above the Holzape through the forest. The …
