The “Green Belt” nature conservation project was born shortly after the border was opened. Nature and environmental conservationists met to secure the former border strip as the "ecological backbone of Central Europe". The death strip has been turned into a "lifeline"; he became a paradise for nature.
The Heinz Sielmann Foundation initiated the Eichsfeld-Werratal Green Belt project. Between the Harz and the Thuringian Forest, in the 3 federal states of Thuringia, Lower Saxony and Hesse, 130 km of the Green Belt are maintained as a biotope network.
The entire Green Belt now runs over 12,500 km through Europe.

In August, the “Green Ribbon” is transformed into a “Colorful Ribbon”. Numerous different wild flowers make this ribbon a colorful flower meadow. Beautiful!

On the Kolonnenweg you hike for kilometers along the former border strip. In many places, nature has already recaptured areas for you.
