Not only the historic mill is an eye-catcher, but the Örtze, flowing quietly at this point, is also very idyllic.

Beautiful campsite with everything your heart desires: several restaurants, a large swimming lake with sandy beaches, a small shop and affordable too... However, the tent areas are quite covered in goose droppings
