Salzderhelden: Excursion tip to Heldenburg and Leinepolders
Activities: We visited the Heldenburg ruin. "The Aufstieg is steil, but kurz" We walked the path and read the information boards. We looked at the remains of the Burgkapelle, two towers and two cellars. We saw the Außenwand des Palas. We did not book a guided tour
Highlights: We explored the ruin on our own. There are several seating areas with tables, perfect for a picnic. My 17-year-old was only moderately motivated, but it was still fun ✨
