Schachenwald

The Schachenwald are sand dune forests formed by sand drifts on the red sandstone ridge, which protrude about one metre above the moor.
For the first time since October I managed to walk around half the Langenschachen (here commonly called Erster Schachen: first Schachen). I was happy with that. On the way back to the car I climbed up to the first floor of the observation tower at the Kranichwoog. Stairs are still a challenge, but altogether I'm starting to feel better and more confident in walking.
