Unfortunately, most of the forest is overgrown with pines and oaks. Only in small parts do you find larger groups with beeches and only a few look really old. Still very nice.

Beautiful trees, slender, straight grown. Interesting bark.

Hiking

The Neukloster Forest is a beech forest with trees up to approximately 200 years old. Originally used by the monastery for which it is named, it is home to several, sometimes rare, animal and plant species. A short hike of about 4.5 km through the Neukloster Forest is wonderful. From the Pfingstmarktplatz parking lot, the W4 hiking trail leads into the forest, passing historical and archaeological treasures such as burial mounds and wayside crosses. Follow the signs to the Friedwald parking lot and turn left there to return to the Pfingstmarktplatz parking lot. Enjoy a beautiful hike here! 🚶🏼‍♀️🚶💚
