Hiking

Sometimes you have to walk on the rails. because of fallen trees.

Hiking

Here you walk for a long time directly along the railway line and on the other side the meandering Selke. The splashing calms you down a bit and is also good against the street noise, since the B243 also runs along here. The chance of encountering the HSB is pretty good here.

Hiking

A narrow hiking trail along the Selketalbahn; if you're lucky, you might spot a train passing by. Makes for a great photo opportunity :-)
