Old Land - for generations, fruit cultivation has been practiced over a wide area, shaping an entire landscape from the Elbe estuary up to the gates of Hamburg. The short episode of nature becomes a gigantic play of colors when  the fruit tree blossom in the plantations lights up the entire region in bright light. Even throughout the rest of the year, the circular hike offers an impressive insight into modern fruit cultivation in a varied river landscape.

    Schöne und sehr leichte Wanderung durchs Moos. Anfangs auf der Verbindungsstraße nach Grafenaschau, dann Feldweg (Radler) und schließlich Brettleweg durchs Lange Filz, dem schönsten Teil der Wanderung. Zuletzt noch ein Stück durch den Wald und man ist wieder am Ausgangspunkt. Bänke und Brotzeitstellen gibt es einige, aber nicht alle sind in gutem Zustand.
