Worth a small look. In the vicinity, there is a disused train that apparently graffiti artists are allowed to use. ;)

This path leads to Gut Altfreesenburg. 😉 Easy to ride and tempts you to the green bridge in the Brenner Moor.

A place of tranquility, peace, and togetherness. We parked our car in the parking lot to begin a hike. Afterwards, we took a short rest on a bench in front of the monastery – I met only friendly and open-minded people throughout the entire area!

The bridge is a practical connection when combining tours north and south of the Trave.
