Twisted Tree Rest Area at the Edge of Hinzel Forest

Highlight • Rest Area

Bizarre tree shapes. How did this growth come about?
You can ponder it for a while on a bench.

June 21, 2022,Nordpfad #3 (16/24) Hinzel

North path 16 of 24. Now that it's on the home straight, I want to know it again and so today I hiked two more north paths. Ultimately also due to the fact that I have at least 45 minutes to get to the remaining north paths, so 14 kilometers are not really worth it. Unfortunately, this time I couldn't …

Today we went on a hike with the "Freilauf Vissel" from Visselhövede. We started at 10 a.m. in Oerel at the waterworks car park. We then hiked clockwise through the shady forests of the Hinzel.

Those who prefer a quieter setting will be in good hands on the NORDPFAD Hinzel. There are no notable highlights here. No traces of the former naval weapons arsenal from 1930 (after all, the largest in the German Navy) were found. Only a dark metal gate at the side of the path gives a hint of what once went on …

On New Year's Day we went relaxed on the north path in Hinzel. Not a spectacular tour, but you can still do a nice lap here. Sometimes the sun even came through. The start with a large parking lot is perfect.

If you find the forest alone boring, you will also find this north path boring. However, if you like forest and trees, you will like it all the more.
For us, there is hardly anything more beautiful than the forest. So we really liked this round despite the weather. Forest, forest and more forest! There were some great trees to …

A north path is a north path is a north path ???
No! Definitely not!

A north path like this is great because it ends where it started (no matter where you start😁). And then it is very different depending on the season, of which there are at least four. And then running the other way around again, it offers …

We started in Oerel at the “Am Wasserwerk” parking lot and hiked clockwise through the Hinzel. Pure forest bathing, with lots of rest areas.

A nice hiking tour with a lot of forest in different shapes. Unfortunately, few benches to linger or for a coffee break.

Hello, there is currently a huge tree in the natural forest that can only be bypassed by entering the forest.
