The stones were not completely submerged today, but extremely slippery. Not recommended even with good shoes and walking sticks. Then just follow the pilgrim path to the left behind the willow church, cross the stream further up to the right and get back on the path. Approx. 3km detour.

Planning for the construction of the church began in 1852, but it was completed in 1866 - initially as a private church. The church has only been home to an independent parish since 1910.

The burial mound field is rather inconspicuous on the side of the path and offers an information board with some interesting information.

Attention, sure-footedness and sturdy shoes are recommended here. But don't worry, the rock in the water isn't loose or wobbly.
