This is a great place to take a break; there are seats in front of the hut or in the hut next door, but only a small natural table is available.

The Konik (from Polish: little horse, small horse) is a pony breed from Central and Eastern Europe. These ponies are very robust and are used in agriculture as well as in the conservation of numerous nature reserves, such as Geltinger Birk (Baltic Sea), Schmidtenhöhe (Koblenz), Brönnhof near Schweinfurt, the Lower Lusatian post-mining landscape of Schlabendorf North, and in the Polish Białowieża National Park, where they are kept in extensive farming practices. The largest population lives in Oostvaardersplassen in the Netherlands under almost wild conditions. The Konik's movements are energetic and tireless in all gaits. The Konik has a limited jumping ability and is characterized by its high resilience. Koniks are considered willing, calm, and undemanding. The breed is known for its longevity. Koniks are a very people-friendly breed and are not shy, even when raised in the wild.[2] Foals, in particular, often maintain contact with people. Konik horses behave dominantly towards other, even larger, breeds within a herd. (Wikipedia)

Remnants of underground bunker systems, typical of training grounds, are present – however, they are not a large, interconnected bunker complex open to the public. The area contains several military installations and bunker remnants, some surrounded by fences and earthworks.

A former military training area with waterholes, numerous hedgerows, and a fair amount of history. The meadows are largely untouched and kept short by sheep, cattle, and horses.

The shelter has been renovated. Very nice view.

Unfortunately we didn't see any horses because they were very shy and ran away from us, so to speak.
