It's a good and pleasant place to walk.

For me, the Scharpenacken is like a little vacation. Views, nature, landscapes. Drive along the old tank roads.

An area of non-native tree species.

Very cool and also cool section of the route

Beautiful route with lots of variety and moderate gradient

This tunnel is a multimedia experience. You see differently, you hear differently. Every pedestrian becomes a silhouette with individual movements. Every cyclist makes a distinctive sound. The image and sound together are like a cartoon. This is great cinema!

The 100 non-native tree species are, of course, not "natural," but the clever and forward-looking creation of humans. The founder, Heinrich Hogrebe, had put in a lot of hard work. The successful growth of the introduced species has since proven that they are suitable replacements for threatened native species. As the accompanying research also discovered, native plants and animals are not disadvantaged in the process; on the contrary, they are enriched with new niches. In contrast, in the natural forest cells of Steinsieperhöh and Meersiepenkopf, where no human intervention takes place, one can see that beeches are displacing oaks. Unfortunately, it is precisely the beeches that die much faster in times of drought. Nature simply doesn't have foresight. If current living conditions dictate it, it would even create deserts... Insight: If we want to continue to have green forests in the future, human foresight, even if limited, can actively contribute to this. And we're probably also helped by some reviled neophytes like the hemp palm and the bluebell tree, which are trying to come here uninvited right now. Unless they're banned like in Switzerland.

Beautiful viewpoint near the Bergisch-Land rehabilitation clinic.
