The Wieken meander beautifully through the idyllic Ihlower Fehn (as these settlement areas are called). An absolutely charming gem, with lots of nature, peace and idyll.

Particularly beautiful section of the Ihlower Forest. Here the forest has been left to its own devices and appears very original and wild.
