On the right, you will see the Grenzlandmilchhof (4 farmers have joined forces to jointly manage their farms). However, turn left and head towards the forest. The path leads through a beautiful beech forest, which then takes you to the "Pomeissling" - an enchanting clearing - where the plant beds of the surrounding farms used to be.
