The inconspicuous Hellbachtal is a little gem. For about 5.5 km you walk on winding paths through a wild valley, always along the stream. The wooden plank paths and a bridge make this jungle excursion perfect. At the turning point there are two benches for an idyllic break.

Coming from Neubukow, you walk directly past the fish ladder. A display board provides various information. Diagonally opposite, the path leads along the edge of the field to the beautiful Hellbachtal.

Long, very unspectacular path... from the forest onwards it gets better again.

Behind the old water mill you come to the Hellbach, to which a beautifully designed fish ladder leads. An interesting fish ladder paves the way for the fish upstream.

In conversations with villagers, I learned that an investor from the West had purchased the mill and wanted to convert it into a hotel restaurant. However, that was years ago and nothing has happened except that this water hole is falling more and more into disrepair.
