In the so-called "Holy Ground" is also the Ockershausen apple trail, a unique place with information to touch and experience. Over 100 different types of apple are presented here. By dispensing with fertilizers and pesticides, a special meadow vegetation was created as well as an important habitat for various endangered animals and plants.

Here Dr. Norbert Clement, a passionate apple lover and connoisseur, has planted over 100 different old apple varieties in collaboration with Stadt, BUND, NABU and JUKO. Fold-out panels illustrate the individual varieties in impressive pictures with descriptions, as if in a “living picture book”.

Anyone who thinks they can nibble on a variety of apples here will be disappointed. On the one hand everything is gnawed within arm's reach and on the other hand the association harvests itself. The same applies to the nearby cherry nature trail, whose cherries are naturally ripe a little earlier.
