Chestnut Avenue in the Cologne City Forest

Highlight • Forest

The "city forest" (see Gerda's contribution) here means a section of the "outer green belt" that stretches west of the Cologne-Klettenberg district between the A4 motorway and the military ring road. Above all, the "Decksteiner Weiher" is well-known.

Canal at the Decksteiner Weiher

Highlight • Lake

A section of canal connects the lower Decksteiner Weiher, located in the outer greenbelt, to the upper pond. Those wishing to circumnavigate only a portion of the pond can use a bridge at the canal's junction.

Allee at Decksteiner Weiher

Highlight • Natural

Some of the trees along the two avenues are now around 80 years old. An avenue of this size and age always creates a very specific atmosphere and gives the pond and its surroundings the character of a larger park.
