Hello SchutzhüttenBank Rolli, you super guide on the s-pedelec or motor vehicle. If you don't recognize a HL, it's because you haven't created one yet. You're only posting comments on your so-called tours. The purpose of HL will probably never become clear to you; you'd have to understand it first. You view Komoot, the hiking and cycling app, as a cheap copy of Instagram or Facebook. Meaningless comments about every HL litter every one of your bike tours. Meaningless GoPro photos, etc. Perhaps someday you'll manage to create a decent HL with a useful tip. Perhaps it would also be helpful to do a few more laps around the tree nursery.

Another great rest stop with a cozy hut. Beautiful to look at, clean, and lovingly decorated. Bench outside the hut and plenty of seating inside. Make sure it stays as clean as it is.

Here you'll find numerous information panels about flora, fauna, and wildlife. This chapel is located directly on an easily accessible circular route through Lathen and Kapellenmoor. The hiking trail is directly adjacent. The observation tower offers a beautiful view of the landscape and the adjacent tree nurseries. Everything you see is in immaculate condition.

This information and rest hut is worth a visit. Sponsored by Volksbank Emstal, it was lovingly restored by members of the Historical Agriculture Working Group, spending over 1,000 hours on it. It is to be hoped that this condition will continue for a long time to come. Numerous informational displays about flora, fauna, and wildlife are inviting not only for adults but also for children. Right next door is a viewing tower overlooking the Kapellenmoor.
