One of the umpteen forest houses in the Boowald. Formerly primarily intended as a shelter for forest workers, today it invites you to small parties in the forest. In contrast to some others, this is very well maintained.

After work, you should let off steam. What could be better after an intensive week than finishing it off with a bike tour on your doorstep.

I usually do the tour in winter. But there should be no exception without exception. Technically, this is quite fun and also very dynamic for cardiovascular training.
