On the trail of milk with Lotte the cow

The themed trail takes us to eight milk stations: A walk with lots of fun and information about milk!

Explore the cowshed, enjoy sweeping panoramic views over the Sauerland's "Tuscany", have a picnic with delicious dairy products and learn about regional specialties along the way. All this and much more is on offer at eight milk stations in and around Referinghausen, where information boards provide information about milk production, nature and the landscape and their interrelationships.

At the last milk station, there is a great playground where you can let off steam and have fun!

By the way: Referinghausen has more cows (around 400) than inhabitants (around 250)!

Current information about our forests - The bark beetle and its consequences

The forest owners are endeavoring to take the necessary measures in the forests and remove the damaged wood. However, due to the extent of the damage, this work cannot be completed in a short space of time. The clearing and reforestation of the damaged forest stands will therefore take a long time and sometimes lead to disruptions such as closures and detour in the forests. This must always be taken into account when visiting the forest.

We therefore appeal to everyone who cares about the forest:

Understand that extensive forestry work is necessary in the current situation and that this is currently accompanying your forest experience.

Be particularly attentive during your leisure activities and observe the prevailing instructions and any prohibitions

Please be considerate ...

Author Tip

The playground at the end of the milk stations offers lots of fun - perhaps take some provisions with you for a picnic at the end!
