Shelter with benches inside and picnic table outside. A bit old, but still seems to be watertight. Also suitable for an overnight stay if necessary.

Weather shelter in the middle of the forest. If it rains, you can take shelter here or take a short break in the shade of the trees.

This is where the NSG Lünsholz begins, whose highest alley is the Lüßberg. There are unusually large and old beech and oak stands for the Südheide, which survived the great forest fire of 1975.

The highest (freely accessible) peak in the Celle district, but without a view. There is also a place to rest, but no weather shelter. The "renaming" to "worry stone" is a little artificial for us, but if it helps...
