ルッケンヴァルデの天然記念物・トップ20

to the south a little torture (hardly noticeable slope) - to the north great!

The Jüterbog Wilderness Area was used for military purposes for over 150 years. What remained was a huge, uninhabited, roadless area. Today, it is a nature reserve and provides a habitat for rare species such as the wolf, Bechstein's bat, and hoopoe. The diversity of the wilderness area's landscape ranges from sand dunes, heathland, and pioneer forests in the central area to wetlands and older forests on the outskirts. Along the way, you can discover how nature can develop dynamically without human intervention. The barren sandy soils are being cultivated by grasses, mosses, and lichens. The heathland gradually spreads across the barren ground, providing a habitat for many rare insect and bird species. Without further disturbance, a semi-open landscape can develop, and it doesn't take long for the first small pioneer trees to establish themselves among the heathland. Over the years, the trees steadily grow larger, so that the primeval forests of tomorrow slowly develop in the wilderness area. In wilderness areas, development never ends. Storms, for example, create open spaces in various places where natural growth begins anew. This is what gives wilderness its special character.

The inland dune is located directly in the nature reserve, which is also strictly protected under European law as a flora fauna habitat and SPA bird sanctuary. It is part of the Jüterbog wilderness area. In the entire area there is a clear order to protect nature and guests. The dune is located on a former military training area that was used for more than 150 years. She is loaded with ordnance. A designated hiking trail free of explosive ordnance leads along the dune. The entire wilderness area is home to many rare species such as wolves, Bechstein's bats and hoopoes. So that they have an undisturbed retreat in the wilderness area, we only observe them from the hiking trails. Moving on the dunes, be it on foot, by bike or any other means of transport is therefore not permitted.

Wonderful area for a short break

Great views from several levels and in all directions. Don't forget your binoculars!

Many water birds can be seen here. The access makes a somewhat neglected impression. One of the access roads is also a bit bumpy, but at least it has been mowed and it is difficult to get through with the bike.

From the viewing platform of the former military training area Jüterbog you have a beautiful view over the heathland and the shifting dune slightly to the west ...
