In the past, the viewing platform actually provided a view of the city. From up here it was also possible to toboggan down to the street in winter. Now everything is overgrown. But maybe it will be again.

Kerstlingeröder Field

Highlight • Natural

A former military training area from the time of the Iron Curtain, when Göttingen was still the location of the Bundeswehr. Since then, it has been a gem in the Göttingen city forest as a local recreation area.

February 5, 2025,GÖ-Stadtw.: Buchenrotten, Meere & Wintertümpel

05.02.25: In the morning we went up to the city forest. Today's motto: hair ice, mushrooms on tree rots, seas and periodic pools that I noticed in various places on the last tours. The Lichte Meer in the game reserve usually has water all year round and is also flooded by the city of Göttingen when necessary. I first noticed …

April 2, 2022,GÖ-Stadtwald: Auf in den Aprilschnee

April 2nd, 2022: After the ski holiday, a forced break due to an unwanted souvenir despite all precautionary measures. Everything is fine in Italy to protect guests. In Austria, with an incidence of over 3,000, there were suddenly no more protective measures. So involuntarily dinner in the virus fog in the evening!
Today after 14 days of illness I feel …

October 8, 2022,GÖ-Stadtwald: Trailing & Sonnenuntergang am Sauberg

10/08/22: In the late afternoon after the rain again in the city forest. The trails are all still very easy to ride. Matching the sunset at the Sauberg. Unfortunately Komoot messes up the order of the photos again. Will try some fine tuning.
Ing. after the vacation-related break a nice, albeit short tour.

February 15, 2026,GÖ-Stadtw.: Kommt es zur Haareisbildung?

February 15, 2026: Hiked up into the city forest this morning. The weather, with light frost and gusty southeast winds, could lead to hair ice formation in exposed areas. Indeed, there was hair ice in several places, including a particularly large patch on the Borheckstraße parallel trail (see photos). A nice loop. Patches of old ice still lingered on some …
