A wooden bench in a quiet forest clearing, surrounded by trees and grass—perfect for a quick break. A wooden sign in the forest describes old sunken paths, surrounded by green trees and lightly overgrown ground. A moss-covered path winds through a dense forest of tall pine and deciduous trees. To the west of the barrow heath there are gullies in the forest, so-called hollow ways. These are remnants of old routes. The paths, deepened by erosion, run here as a so-called bundle of paths towards the former ford through the Gibbach. From prehistoric times until the 19th century, a path ran through this area, which has been known since the Middle Ages as the Lüneburg salt or postal route.
