Griesheim a place to trek

Griesheim is a nice place where there is a small forest and a lots of plains. On 28-Sep-2008, we planned to go the place. We stay in near Derendorf, Dusseldorf and Griesheim is a short ride from the place where we live. We started at 1:30 pm in the afternoon and reached there around 2:15 pm in S-Bahn from Derendorf to Haupbahnhof (S1 or S7 or S6) and then took S8 from HBF (Hauptbahnhof) after we came out of the Bahn station we walked straight and then took a right where four roads crossing, then we took the first left and first right and again walked straight till the end of the street where at one the forest can be see.

We entered the forest and since being a sunny day it way quite good we walked along the path in the wood and reached farm land, after walking along the path we reached a small house a farm house where a kind of lassi and cakes were sold we took a short break and had the lassi which tasted like curd along with berry fruit. we also tried the cake along with cream and i liked the cakes very much.

After a short break we started back and again trekked through the wood and reached a place where there was a church. The church was beautiful even though not a old one. Besides the church was a large area with a fountain at the center. In the middle of the fountain there was a pillar with faces of some people and years carved on the pillar. Apart from that the work culture and living hood of people was carved in figuration.

After spending time there we started back home.
