Now I was finally here. A truly beautiful place. While I was sitting there writing a sentence in the bank book, an elderly couple (both over 80) approached me. They had already written something in it and said that this was now the only bank here. They took 6,500 steps a day. And she started learning to play the piano at 85. She doesn't want to live forever, just make the most of it. This lady really impressed me. Thank you @Dolle, without you, this short conversation wouldn't have happened.

A short break and/or a shelter in case of rain.

Old Post Bridge/Napoleon Bridge The formerly busy postal route Hamburg - Lüneburg - Braunschweig led through the marshy Mühlenbach valley, so that a bridge and a causeway were necessary. In 1789, King George III of England and Elector of Hanover had the bridge built from bricks and granite stones. It's great that this historic bridge, worth seeing, has survived all these years and has been preserved to this day. https://heimatverein-ashausen.de/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/Ashausen-Rundweg-A.pdf

Long planned...and now finally put into action. I've had Dolle's bank on my list for a long time and today I took advantage of the very best cycling weather and made my way to Dolle's "famous" bank and even signed the bank book in my scrawly handwriting, which is actually the same as opening a formal account and it was worth it. The bank is clearly visible on the side of the road in beautiful nature, invites you to take a rest and the bank book, which is well secured against water, is interesting to read. Great idea and very well implemented. Many thanks to Dolle for this great idea. A worthwhile destination, even for a day bike ride along the Elbe, like I did today. If you don't know Dolle yet, here is a link to his very interesting Komoot profile and there to his excellent YouTube profile: https://www.komoot.com/de-de/user/206514045736

Large parking lot in the middle of Buchwedel. Good starting point for a hike. The nature trail also starts here.

Nice bridge, in wet (autumnal) conditions the path to the southeast into the forest becomes difficult to pass, even with an MTB. So if you don't mind a bit of mudslinging, this is the place for you. On the bridge itself you have a nice view of the surrounding area. But also very passable on foot, for example from the location (e.g. Gasthaus Kieselshöh).

a wonderful action by Dolle, who transported this break bench here with the sweat of his brow and has now created a fun starting point for the Komoot Community with his bank book👍

I LIKE TO SIT ON IT Melody: "Thunderstorm" Element of Crime There is a bench in Buchwedel, which Dolle built there last winter, lonely and alone there was always a bench there, but it was old and rotten and Dolle got down to business because he likes to sit on it. With a cart from the hardware store, he drove the bank into the forest That wasn't easy, because she just fits on it and the paths were narrow, and the bench weighed heavily but Dolle didn't give up because he likes to sit on it. And we wish Dolle's bank that it lasts for years not only the Black Friday of New York Good Bank in Buchwedel, Dolle gave it to us we hope it stays forever because we like to sit on it.
