From Mühlenteich the path becomes more of a hiking trail with washed out tree roots, bottlenecks, etc.

After visiting the mill pond, it is worth visiting the pension/coffee "Manus Faktur" on the road to Albersdorf, just a few 100 m from the mill pond through the forest. There is a very good extensive one here Cake buffet in a cozy atmosphere. Large outdoor terrace in summer.

The mill pond was used to operate a water mill. The first indications of the occurrence of a water mill in Albersdorf can be found on a map from 1559. It has been owned by the Boljen family since 1750, who still own it today. The watermill has been a listed building since 1984 and is the only still operational watermill in Dithmarschen. The mill pond, which is fed by the Westerau, has developed after intensive renaturation measures into a habitat for a species-rich flora and fauna. The newly created scree slide enables fish and insect species to move from the Gieselau to the mill pond.
