The "Malerradweg durch Weizenfelder" (Painter's Cycle Path through Wheat Fields) near Reislingen is a particularly beautiful section of a bike tour in the east of Wolfsburg. It is located near the Reislingen district and is part of a well-developed cycle route, often used by leisure and road cyclists. The open landscape is typical for this section: the cycle path leads through wide agricultural areas, where golden wheat fields stand in summer. This creates a quiet, almost "picturesque" atmosphere – probably where the name "Malerradweg" comes from. The route is wide, well-asphalted, and suitable for pleasant relaxed rides or for more sporty tours without much traffic.

"Ulenboom" is Low German for owl tree. The name comes from the fact that owls found shelter in the crown or in the hollows of the old trunk. In village folklore, the call of the owl was often considered a mystical sign, which gave the tree a special aura. The linden tree is estimated to be several hundred years old. It has witnessed wars, village fires and the transformation from a heathland circular village to a modern community.

The section shortly after the A2 was resurfaced to Glentorf in July 2024. A dream in black with two shoulders that takes us undulating to Glentorf.
