Köte rest hut in the moor

Highlight • Mountain Hut

A resting place in the form of a kote, as is very common in the Harz region. However, not completely made of wood like in the resin, but with tarpaulins and trunks. Very suitable as a weather-independent rest area.

This rest area is located directly on the Oste-Hamme Canal and is in the shade under trees. There is also a shelter there in case the heavy rain shower comes.
There is also an information board about the canal.

Nice rest area at the village entrance next to the canal

A nice rest area. We definitely preferred the outdoor table. The hut is very practical in bad weather if you have something suitable for lighting. So the hut was dark, the “witch’s broom” could be wielded again. The large, sturdy table in front of it was definitely a great place for us to take a break.

Amazing cottage in the middle of the bog by the wayside, reminds me of a wigwam. Rest hut with a large round bench with a table inside for snacks, teatime or simply against the rain. In front of it a double sized beer tent set.
