🚲✨ For the use of public rest areas in the municipality of Edewecht and along the popular Kleinbahn hiking trail, simple but important rules apply. They ensure that the idyllic places in Ammerland are preserved for all visitors and for nature. The most important principle is: "Please take your trash back with you." Many outdoor rest areas (such as on Hochtanger Weg or in Vehnemoor) deliberately have no trash cans to keep pests away and minimize disposal trips through nature.
