May 16, 2026,Wanderung - Königslutter - Steinbruch Hainholz – Lutterquelle - 16.05.2026
This historic hike starts in Königslutter and leads directly to the geological history in the Hainholz adventure quarry.

With around 16,000 inhabitants, Königslutter is a rather tranquil town in the Helmstedt district. However, it has an interesting history, because Königslutter owes its present-day cityscape with its many half-timbered houses to the Duckstein beer that comes from here. Many of the houses are in good condition, but there are also a number that are showing signs of decay.

This combination tour took us on varied paths, which are lined with many opportunities to take a break, through the Elm, which is gradually becoming autumnal. Sometimes the signs were missing or illegible, as was the case with the elevated water tank, but the tour is highly recommended.
