Germany Neuenburg virgin forest

Part of the Neuenburg woods (Neuenburger Holz) nature reserve is the Neuenburg Virgin Forest (Neuenburger Urwald), a former pasture woodland (Hutewald). Already in the middle of the 17th century it was declared under protection and today it mainly consists of ancient oak and beech trees. Some are said to be over 800 years old.

Thanks to the well-signposted "node system", forest visitors can find their way around the grove at any time and anywhere - without the need for maps or navigation devices.
