    The Wattendorfer slope has everything a real juniper heather needs: lean, sunlit dry grass, rock and gravel areas, juniper and a shepherd who makes sure that the slope is guarded. This special cultural landscape was only created through grazing. An extremely important species-rich biotope that is particularly important for nature conservation. Plants and animals that love light and warmth have found their niche here.
    A bench above the juniper heather at the vantage point invites you to dream and relax and is reminiscent of the old times of the 60s with their home films, which could have been made against such a backdrop.

      Bench and table for a rest are up here. Sit down and enjoy the view.
