Hegeholz Grabhuegelfeld submitted by holger_rix : Spot the Barrow ! Second Visit. Some impressive Round Barrows can be seen from the foot path. Hefty vegetation, you can't just walk over. I didn't see any of those 'Bautasteine'. (Vote or comment on this photo)
Barrow Cemetery in Schleswig-Holstein, Hamburg

I was on the search for the Sprockhoff 44 tomb, but it was already too dark to enter the forest.

But I was surprised to find an informational sign, that stands right there at the given location.

In the forest Hegeholz are 44 viking barrows, and they call the round trip 'Travel to Walhala'.

The text mentions some 'Bautasteine' and it would be interesting to find them.

I will definitly come back here, at a better time.
