Author´s Tip / Recommendation of the author

Admission is charged for visiting the lookout tower at the Tanzplan and the Urzeitpark. A visit is recommended, especially the mineral exhibition at the Urzeitpark is very interesting.

With binoculars, you can enjoy the outstanding view from the Tanzplan even better!
