Hiking

The Sequoiafarm Kaldenkirchen is a 35,635 m² (≈ 3.6 hectare) arboretum in the Kaldenkirchener Grenzwald in the North Rhine-Westphalian city of Nettetal. The first systematic cultivation of all three species of sequoia in Europe took place here in the middle of the 20th century. The site was used by universities and as a biological station for several years and has belonged to the non-profit organization "Sequoiafarm" since 2013.

Hiking

Over the years, the park - now known as the Sequoia Farm - was constantly expanded, making it a much-acclaimed arboretum that, by 1967, had more than 600 types of woody shrubs with a varied soil flora and became an attraction of the Maas-Schwalm Nature Park. Nice became. Since the area had long been neglected, today only about 400 types of woodland are preserved.
