Marianne in March 2023 It is worth doing this hike. It is easily accessible by train and bus. Great landscape with many rest areas to relax. You can hike with sneakers or better light hiking boots. Have fun

Very steep stairs, even when hiking you have to be careful.

The Husemersee is surrounded by nature and a popular destination for hiking enthusiasts. A special highlight on the route is the picturesque wooden bridge that leads past the lake. From here you have a breathtaking view of the sparkling water. The bridge is not only a great vantage point, but also a perfect place to take a short break and enjoy the peace and quiet of the surroundings. Whether for a relaxed hike or a short detour - the Husemersee with its charming bridge is always worth a visit!

The Trottbaum has been standing at Schiterberg since 2012. A plaque provides information about its more than 300-year history.
