Guided Story
Feel that gentle breeze? It's carrying whispers from a time when coal mining ruled this land. Look over to your left, where the Ewaldsee lies, a hidden gem amidst this lush greenery. This used to be a mining area, slowly reclaimed by nature. You might hear the soft lapping of the water or the calls of birds making their home here. Behind you, the sprawling meadows and woods are teeming with life. Did you know this place has only been a nature reserve since 1997? It's a living testament to nature's resilience and the intertwined stories of past and present.
