    Mountain biking

    A relic from the terrible Nazi war policy: The Westwall. The surviving parts of the tank barriers can be found in our region in many places, which are called because of their shape and cusp line or dragon's teeth. Today they are not only a memorial, but also a retreat for plants and animals.

    Relics from ugly history, conquered by beautiful nature. Warning and hope at the same time. Never again fascism!
