Tips

The interesting “time travel path”, which was opened for the 50th anniversary of the Effelsberg radio telescope in 2021, begins and ends at the visitor pavilion of the radio telescope. It runs for a total length of just over 5 km around the site of the radio observatory. Unfortunately, Caterpillars have left ruts on the forest floor. If it has rained, the path is sometimes muddy.
The time travel path at the Effelsberg radio telescope includes a total of 20 stations and the first 50 years in the history of the Effelsberg radio telescope (1971-2021) are presented. Further information at mpifr-bonn.mpg.de/effelsberg/visitor/zeitreiseweg.
