Hilden Heath
Highlight • Forest
"The Hilden city forest covers an area of approx. 430 hectares and is a classic mixed forest. It consists of two-thirds deciduous trees and one-third conifers.
The tasks associated with the city forest are nature conservation and forestry in the narrower sense, i.e. sustainable wood production. In addition, the forest is primarily used for the recreation of Hilden's citizens. For this purpose, it offers all visitors and nature lovers around 100 benches, three forest playgrounds, a fitness trail, three jogging routes of different lengths, a dog exercise meadow, a lookout tower on the Jahberg, 12 km of riding trails and 30 km of hiking trails for walking, dog walking, cycling or jogging .
About 20% of the Hilden city forest consists of nature reserves, the entire other forest area is designated as a landscape conservation area. These are in particular the dry heathland on the Sandberg and the heathland moor in the Schönholz area. In these areas there are still many very rare plant species such as the carnivorous sundew, roe ail, bog lily and king fern as well as animal species that have become rare (including some insect species and lizards). Many of these plants and animals are on the "Red List of Threatened Species". The preservation and protection of these areas is therefore of particular importance."
