Tips

October 27, 2022

Hiking

The Tertiary pond gives an impression of the exotic past of Central Europe. During the Tertiary period (about 70-2 million years ago) the climate in Central Europe was warm subtropical. With average annual temperatures of 22° (Bochum today 11°), species of genera that are now extinct in Europe grew here, but still occur in North America and East Asia with many species.

Hiking

With its primeval-looking bald cypresses, which send their typical knots of roots across the water surface, the Tertiary pond gives an impression of the vegetation of Central Europe around 20 million years ago.
