Welmbüttel located in a charming area with the Geest name Dithmarscher Switzerland, "
the area was in 1905 from citizens of Heath and the surrounding area on holidays (to be traveling with the little train) as a cultural program. An "enchanted forest" and a labyrinth invited to stay and relax. The community Welmbüttel is the only "forest community" in the Official parish rural communities Eider, the forest share is for the district forest about 165 ha and the Nordwohlde (Bauer Forest), about 100 hectares, the sources of Tielenau (see HISTOUR table "T 25a) and the Broklandsau cut deep into the sandy bottom of the Geest. Since the 1980s, a walking trail is especially popular, he runs from Welmbüttel on Schrum and Gaushorn and will be expanded as desired in the forest (district forestry, Heidberg (see HISTOUR table "T 25b") and to the sources, or ponds), but also at the highest elevation in Dithmarschen Schrum (Karghoede "78.81 m above sea level) and pass the largest (now not yet destroyed) collection of grave mounds in Dithmarschen Gaushorn on the field (see table HISTOUR "T 26") further on the edge of the training area to a large mound of the Bronze Age in Gaushorn southwest. The road then goes through the field Mark the "mill Barg" by the old railway station in Gaushorn then on the embankment of the little train in the "Nordwohlde" after Welmbüttel until you reach the restaurant " Restaurant Waldesruh " passes, where coffee and cakes of the Wanderer can rest. By the way, the trail may also be committed in the other direction, sometimes this results in a completely different landscape. The picture below (View slideshow) are both in one and in the other direction taken. The shown map shows the possibilities of the trail, it can be adapted to individual needs. The "inner circle" has a length of about 7 km, with the respective "bulges" in the East (District Forestry) or the West can be extended individually up to about 12 - 15 km length.
For orientation you can change the view of the map, Sat (Ellit) or card clearly with or without a label, and photo and the street names when the size using "+" or "- changed".
