Ebergötzen Quarry Wall

Highlight • Climb

At the end of the village in the direction of Nörten-Hardenberg, on the right-hand side, there is an impressive rock face as a relic of building sandstone extraction. There are several climbing routes here.

Historic Water Mill at the German Bread Museum

Highlight • Monument

The small watermill originally comes from the Tyrolean Gerlostal (Austria). The state of the art of this mill dates back to around 1600. In 1971 it was brought to Mollenfelde and in 2004 moved to Ebergötzen and restored.

Hexentreppe Sandstone Rock

Highlight • Natural Monument

Directly on the way is a sandstone rock with a steep flat surface inclined towards the west. Steps are carved into it, which form an approx. 5 meter long path. This can be exciting for families with children.

Kneipp Pool on Lukasberg

Highlight • Rest Area

Last year (2020) the water was turned off here. But it is a beautiful facility that can be easily reached from the Bösinghausen forest edge below. The formation of tufa on the water channels is interesting. When hiking through the Weisswassertal you can usually get good drinking water here. The next opportunity to do so is the Hördelbrunnen down the valley. To the southwest in the headwaters of the Weißwasserbach and the floodplains, good drinking water is scarce.

Hördel Spring

Highlight • Natural Monument

The well provides good drinking water. The next good water point is just before Bösinghausen (water treading point or Keippbad am Lukasberg). The occurrence of liverwort is beautiful and well worth seeing. Unfortunately, the seating area is made entirely of plastic, which is cold to the touch.

Lower Weißwasserbach Pond

Highlight • Lake

There used to be 3 ponds here in the lower Weisswassertal. This is the lowest and last remaining pond. In the upper, non-forested part of the Weisswassertal there is still a fish pond and a sinkhole, which until a few years ago still held water at times. It can get quite noisy down here when the toads spawn. A very interesting natural spectacle. I have also seen gray herons here.
