Hike: Enjoy It with All Your Senses

This forest-filled section of the Grumsiner Genusswanderweg is a delight! The vibrant Buchenwald Grumsin gives you strength, and mysterious primeval bogs offer a deep glimpse into nature. The Loisenhof transports hikers into an artistic world, and the final stop at the Grumsiner Brennerei invigorates the senses. A feast for body, mind, and soul!

Discover Grumsin
On a leisurely 1.5- to 2-hour hike, you’ll get to know and fall in love with the vibrant Buchenwald Grumsin along the UNESCO World Natural Heritage Site.

Take the WelterbeBus Grumsin (runs from April through October) from Angermünde to the Luisenhof stop.
The turquoise “G” with a beech leaf will guide you through the forest on a winding, undulating path all the way to Altkünkendorf. A wonderful little corner of the world awaits you.

Louisenhof No. 2
The Tucholke-Bonnet couple’s art barn is located along the way. Artistry as far as the eye can see. Often crafted from found objects or old tools. A wonderful place for a creative break with coffee and cake. More info: www.loisenhof2.de

The Buchenwald Grumsin Information Center in Altkünkendorf provides information about the flora and fauna of the Grumsin, as well as its history and significance.

A Feast for All the Senses
Thomas Blätterlein, founder of the Grumsiner Brennerei, is passionate about his work. Inspired by biodiversity-rich wild hedgerows, abandoned orchard meadows, and long-forgotten varieties of grains and fruits, he creates natural, fine brandies and liqueurs.

The Association for the Preservation and Recultivation of Crop Plants (VERN e.V.) in Greiffenberg is an important partner for the
distillery. More information: www.vern.de

The best way to experience Grumsin is right there on site. The host provides a passionate and entertaining introduction to this ancient craft. The tasting features regional, organic products baked in the host’s own wood-fired oven.
