Beautiful stand of old-growth beech and other deciduous trees at the southern fringes of Dortmund, near its highest points plateau of the Ardey range. A network of dirt and gravel paths crisscross this about 500 acre area, popular with hikers and mountain bikers. It belonged to a 13th century aristocracy, with the 18th century gatehouse well-protected and used by a children home. de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niederhofer_Wald
