The best running trails around Vahlberg

Beautiful bench on the hillside path with a view of Groß Denkte.

The campsite has been there since 1970. This year, the Wolfenbüttel district youth welfare office and the Wolfenbüttel city youth welfare office each held three-week holiday camps as a suburban recreational activity for the first time. In 1974, the Wolfenbüttel district acquired the site and since then the "Asselager" has been held there. A 14-day children's camp at the beginning of the summer holidays for children aged 6 to 12.

With this adventure trail, the Ostfalen Open Air and Adventure Museum (FEMO), the Asse collective municipality and the Lower Saxony Elm Forestry Office want to bring the natural and cultural history of the Asse closer to visitors in an exciting and diverse way. We invite you to enter the landscape, relax and enjoy nature. The hike begins at the "Waldhaus Asse" car park above Wittmar. The path leads through the Liebes-Allee to the Bismarck Tower and Asseburg, then back to the "Waldhaus Asse" inn. It is also possible to hike around the Röhrberg to the northern Muschelkalk ridge and return to the "Waldhaus Asse" via the Teichweg and the site of the former Asse I mine. 9 experience points explain aspects of geology, history, prehistory and early history, botany and mycology and highlight the connections between these disciplines.

Still waters (also known as standing waters, standing waters or stagnant waters) are natural or artificially created bodies of water in which there is no or only a slight flow rate. They are inland waters, and are the opposite of flowing waters. Oceans and seas are not still waters. Within hydrology, limnology deals with standing and flowing waters, primarily fresh waters, but also special forms of saline inland waters (such as saltwater lakes), which do not fall under oceanography.

The excursion restaurant , built by Johann Friedrich , was also popular with the regional nobility at the time .

The best car park for a tour of the Asse, preferably directly via the Liebesallee to the Bismarkturm.

Almost all of the low-level and medium-level radioactive waste in the Federal Republic of Germany is disposed of in the Asse II mine. Around 67 percent of the waste volume comes from the plants of the energy supply companies. Typical types of waste are: filters, scrap metal, paper, laboratory waste, construction waste, wood, sludge or mixed waste. Further waste is delivered by research institutes, the nuclear industry and other waste producers (e.g. from medicine).

Those responsible described the shaft in the former salt mine near Remlingen as "absolutely safe" when thousands of tons of nuclear waste were stored there between 1967 and 1978. But the so-called Asse II has not been safe for a long time. Since 1988, around 12,000 liters of groundwater have been flowing into the mine every day. This means there is a risk of radioactivity getting into the groundwater. That is why there was a law in 2013 for the retrieval of radioactive waste from the mine. But not much has happened since then. So far, it is neither clear how the waste can get out of the Asse II nor where it is supposed to go. Source: https://detector.fm/politik/versuchsendlager-asse-ii
