We are hiking in the Stüher Forest. During the hike, we immerse ourselves in the history of the people who lived here. It's as if we were embarking on a journey through time.

The starting point of our hike is the hiking car park on Stüher Straße, southwest of Ganderkesee. We are located in the Wildeshauser Geest Nature Park.
