Hiking

Very beautiful section of the Nordbahntrasse at Eskesberg with a view of the surrounding area.
The access here takes you to the Old Lime Kiln in a short distance.

Hiking

The lime hopper kiln, which was in operation until World War II, is interesting to see.

The Eskesberg is a successful example of how a former quarry and the resulting landfill can be transformed into a small nature reserve in the form of a rich meadow in the middle of the city.
