    Hiking

    The goat herd in the Geisterbusch currently comprises 250 to 300 animals and is composed of different breeds and their crossbreeds. Goats like to eat leaves and young twigs from trees, some trees and bushes are also peeled. This eating behavior pays off very well in the Geisterbusch, as the heathland would naturally develop into forest within a few years.

    Hiking

    Even today the herd of goats could be observed in the heath. Very trusting animals in a large herd.
