January 4, 2022,Von der Wasserburg Schelenburg zum Großsteingrab Jeggen u zurück

From the Schelenburg (moated castle) through meadows and forests ... past old half-timbered houses and quaint old courtyards to the Jeggen large stone grave and back
Little vertical meters .... easy to walk .... relatively little mud ... I liked the tour a lot .... despite a bit of asphalt
But I generally like Schledehausen as a place very much
