My husband and I are taking a short trip in June. We plan to spend a few days in Otterberg. I have already been writing to the tourist information office at Otterberg and the gentleman at the office has been most helpful.. And we are able to write in English... Jillaine in your report please mention if you could use English to ask questions or if you need to know German in most places.. Thank you, Margaret in Maryland, USA
