    Imposing trees, powerful and with spreading roots.

      This landscape of the Testerberge, shaped by an ice-age terrace edge of the Rhine, is very attractive, especially due to the many huge, old trees, some of which have to struggle with the sandy subsoil, as it offers them little support. The result is a lot of fallen trees, which you have to climb over here and there and which represent a great balancing pole. Some trees also look quite strange because of the cracks they left behind. Others have developed new roots after a fall and now simply continue to grow across the path, so that an open eye can discover one or the other bizarre beauty here.
