    Hiking

    In the heart of the Brander Wald, where silence and nature converge, lie traces of a past you wouldn't immediately expect. Among the trees stand old battle tanks – silent, weathered, and overgrown. They are part of a forgotten chapter from the Cold War, when this area was used as a training ground. Now they are rusty monuments of steel, hushed by the greenery. Hikers who venture off the path are rewarded with a surprising piece of history surrounded by nature.
