Very interesting where the stamp box is located. I just hoped that I could reach the box without falling into the water.

First, it goes through the forest. You don't expect anything bad and suddenly the view opens up over idyllic villages, mountains, and distant neighboring mountain ranges like the Knüll, for example. Surprise successful.

A very nice trail, but after about 10 minutes we gave up trying to find stamp point 289. NOTE! We did find it after all, on the terrace of the first house in Zitters. It was probably relocated there because there's forestry work going on at the original stamp point.

Stamping point with increased difficulty: You must first cross the water. There is no bridge.

The church in Zitters was built in 1380 by Abbot Konrad IV. In 1892, the old church was rebuilt and expanded in the neo-Gothic style. The church was restored between 1974 and 1976. The church forecourt was repaved in 1990, and in the same year, a copy of a crucifixion scene by Tilmann Riemenschneider, donated by Bishop Joachim Wanke, was placed above the altar. The church's patron saints are Saint Sebastian (January 20), Saint Anthony the Hermit (January 17), and Saint Wendelin (October 20). The Feast of Saint Sebastian is celebrated by the residents as an annual patron saint's festival in January.
