Sacrificial stones in Leistrup Forest

Highlight • Natural Monument

Striking: two extraordinarily large stones. So-called sacrificial stones, specially shaped and processed. Nothing exactly is not known. Wikipedia speaks of a cultic background and of "superstitious practices of the rural population".

Leistrup Forest Nature and Adventure Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Take a towel with you for going barefoot, then it's better. Otherwise it is a beautiful and lovingly constructed educational trail. Absolutely great for bringing our nature closer to children.

A nice little afternoon walk. There are beautiful views all the way to Porta Westfalica.

The forest adventure trail is well-marked and there's a bit of a workout. Very nice, and it's also shady.
