After some minutes I got a car to Hess. Lichtenau, I passed there the city, then after some minutes again I got a car to Spangenberg, where I arrived at 13:45. Then I walked for three kilometers along the country roads and after crossing a meadow I entered the forest.

So I tried at first to walk across the ridge, but I found out that there was a deep valley and I could not enter the valley from my side. But I could see the raptors, making something like haymaking but with big trees.
