In summer anyone can plow fruit here, provided the old trees are still bearing. Very nice idea.

The approximately 290 hectare Mechtenberg Landscape Park is located in the middle of the triangle of cities of Bochum, Essen and Gelsenkirchen. This landscape park is named after the approximately 83 meter high Mechtenberg, which is one of the few naturally formed mountains in the Ruhr area. A visit to this landscape park is worthwhile at any time of year. In the middle of the industrial Ruhr area, more precisely in the border area between Bochum, Essen and Gelsenkirchen, there is a true oasis to escape the gray everyday life - the Mechtenberg Landscape Park. There you will find
in spring, summer, autumn or winter dreamlike backdrops that have made the dreary gray of the Ruhr area more and more colorful in recent years. The beauty of the Mechtenberg Landscape Park was also given a little boost in the 1990s. Cycle and hiking trails as well as orchards and avenues were created to offer visitors a more attractive environment on the one hand, but also to create a new habitat for the animal world on the other.
