Vicinity

  • Town / Village Ziegenhagen is a district of Witzenhausen and is located between Kassel and Göttingen in the middle of Germany. Right near us begins the Kaufunger Forest, which can be hiked 15 km deep. The many springs and streams right by us are striking. A small swimming lake is a 7-minute drive away, and 2 larger, very beautiful lakes are a 30-minute drive away. Witzenhausen has attracted many alternative-living people due to its first federal university for ecological agriculture, who have remained in the region. Witzenhausen is known as the cherry town, a Transition Town, and the fertile nature with its gentle hills and the noticeably future-oriented people here have also attracted us. The Parimal, Gut Hübenthal, about 8 km away, as a meditation center has also brought many alternative-living people to our region. Thus, Ziegenhagen has become a mixed village of many committed newcomers and the open-minded long-time residents. The working group "Sustainable Ziegenhagen" now encompasses more than 20 projects, from the communal "village garden" to a "village newspaper" to the joint "growing old in the countryside." Notable mentions in the vicinity are the Kaufunger Forest, various spas, Berlepsch Castle, Ludwigstein Castle, Sababurg Castle, and Hann Münden: my favorite little town. It invites you to marvel while strolling through its well-preserved medieval streets with many small alleys and crooked houses. The incredibly beautiful, gently hilly nature with its many streams and fruit trees is always worth highlighting, as well as the Hohe Meißner and thus our "Frau Holle Land" with the myth-enveloped Holle Pond, Holle Stone, and Holle Cave. All ancient cult sites of the great goddess in the form of "Frau Holle." As a fairy tale, it was discovered here by the Brothers Grimm.

  • Forest The Kaufunger Forest begins with us and you can hike 15 km.

  • Mountains

  • River Our "river" is the small stream

Commute

  • By car Take the A7, exit 75 "Hedemünden". Drive into the village of Hedemünden and at the roundabout in the village (not the one immediately after the motorway), Ziegenhagen is already signposted. Drive about 4 km over the mountain towards Ziegenhagen, turn right into the road to Ziegenhagen. We are a dead-end village: A long street from which smaller streets branch off to the right and left. Blume is the second to last street on the right before it goes steeply uphill. The house on Blume is the last one on the right side.

  • By public transport The nearest train station is 5 km away: "Gertenbach". It can be reached from Kassel and Göttingen in 20 minutes by regional train. From Gertenbach, take bus 218 to Ziegenhagen - Mitte. Continue on foot for another 3 minutes in the direction of travel, and the first right is our street "Blume".
