The Ohligs Heath is a partially wooded former heathland in the municipal area of Solingen-Ohligs in North Rhine-Westphalia. It is part of the Bergische Heideterrasse (Bergish Heath Terrace) and belongs to the Hilden-Lintorfer Sandterrassen (Hilden-Lintorfer Sand Terraces) natural area. It is a protected area. Clearing is intended to restore a larger heathland area as a traditional cultural landscape in the long term. See: de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ohligser_Heide

Hiking

The Ohligser Heide is a partly wooded, former heathland and part of the Bergische Heideterrasse. By clearing the land, attempts are being made to restore the original heath as a cultural landscape. The hike through the nature reserve is great. Sturdy shoes are a good idea, as the paths are sometimes a little soft and the wooden walkways are slippery.
