I have now discovered the camera!!! I doubt it was already installed during my last visit... 🤔

It's nice to see that the newly erected viewing platform is apparently receiving more attention than it did in the past. This is evident from the extension with information boards and the regular visits by guests arriving on foot, with various types of bikes, and also by car... Speaking of which: The picture of the front of the new platform, which I took at the time without fear of penalty, I would no longer take today, as the meadow is now cordoned off and entering it is strictly forbidden under threat of penalty. There is also said to be a camera...

While the platform, rebuilt after a fire, is no longer quite so hidden, there are still no seats. However, you don't really need them with the great view of birds of prey and water birds in a fantastic landscape with two ponds and associated flora and fauna on two levels... More information about the 'Michelwiese' can be found here: www.gemeinde-nienhagen.de/kultur-freizeit/natur/michelwiese.html

Looking back, the route did catch my eye, but unfortunately it didn't encourage me to stop and/or take photos.

Thanks for the explanation from @Maxe and @Manuuu🌳🚶‍♂️🚲! I think a themed tour should be generated from visiting all the sculptures in one go... 😉

By the way: The picture of the front of the new platform, which I took at the time without fear of penalty, I would no longer take today, as the meadow is now fenced off and entering it is strictly forbidden under threat of penalty. There is also said to be a camera...

Even though this body of water is probably something artificially created (cf. 'Alte Thöse'), nature has reclaimed a lot here, so a short stop to admire it is worthwhile. To stay in the forest between Wathlingen and Hänigsen, there isn't much else you can do, as @Watho96 correctly mentions in his highlight [www.komoot.com/de-de/highlight/4791781?ref=whd] about the supposedly most direct path past the spoil heap.
