"... It is the observation of how nature reclaims the land in the typical fallow stages that makes the area particularly interesting for plant and animal lovers. The deep, coarse gravel bed of the track harps, which were dismantled at different times, is particularly difficult for plants to colonize, as rainwater seeps away quickly and the soil is therefore dry and warm. It is only with great effort that the first pioneers manage to settle and slowly gain a foothold.

Nevertheless, over time, an enormous variety of species has developed here, which the animals soon followed. Mullein, lilac, viper's bugloss, thistle and birch groves are representatives of the plants, butterflies and grasshoppers, woodpeckers, pheasants and hares have arrived as animal guests..."
