Lippold's Cave

Highlight • Cave

Robber Lippold
About an hour west of Alfeld, at the village of Brunkensen, lies the Lippoldshöhle. It consists of several rooms, one of which is called the kitchen, another is called the horse stable. A column in the rock is called the chimney. The robber Lippold used to live in this cave. So that one could not trace him so easily, he knocked down his horse's horseshoes. On all the paths that passed, he had attached wires that connected with a bell in the cave. If one of you passed by and hit the wire with your foot, the bell soon rang. Then Lippold came out of his cave, shot down the man and robbed him.

Highland Cattle in Hutewald Saupark Springe

Highlight • Forest

Come visit us in the “Hutewald” Saupark Springe. We are a herd of Scottish highland cattle and live all year round in the 20 hectare “Gelbbachtal” in the Osterwald between Eldagsen and Coppenbrügge (L422). A species-rich park-like forest and pasture landscape with beech, oak and alder trees is to be created here. The spruce trees had to give way for this. Many amphibian species such as frogs, newts and toads have become native since the project started in 2015. The terrain is also often visited by a wild cat. In May 2019, around 30,000 bees consumed a log hive.
The historic Miners' Trail leads through the Osterwald. This old route used to be used by workers to get to the mines and quarries and materials and goods were transported along it. The yellow miners' signs lead via Dörpe and Salzburg on beautiful nature paths to the town of Osterwald. Hikers are also rewarded with a great view of the Weserbergland. When you arrive in Osterwald, a hut tunnel can be visited.

Rest area with picnic table and information board

Highlight • Rest Area

Here you can take the opportunity to take a good break before going up to the observation tower because the route is sloping.
