The 1 m wide concrete slabs are a blessing after rain 😇.

Unfortunately, there are signs everywhere saying "No Entry," but apparently it's a lot of fun to drive (I know this from a friend ;))

Picturesque place near the "Old School" where you can enjoy the day with a good drink and a snack.

When the antique shop is open, you can also drive into the Bothkamp estate—we do it on Saturdays from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. 😉. The White Manor House, however, is private.

Pay attention to the water levels, I drove over a flooded road today and that was a wet and cheerful nunmer

Amazing nature! The boardwalk is unique. Dosenmoor isn't always accessible! Flooding after prolonged rain. Sometimes mosquitoes. Still: give it a try.
