“Volunteers in Parks” Are Welcome! “My most memorable experience was sitting on the Helgoland dunes for an entire day with a camera, observing and photographing grey seals.” Maike Paul, volunteer at Wadden Sea National Park of Lower Saxony “It is always nice to discover new and hidden springs in the course of our investigations.” Udo Kaiser, volunteer at the Rhön Biosphere Reserve “It is amazing to stand at the Tauerwiesen Pond with a group and see approximately 150 cranes fly overhead, hear the distant roaring of stags and observe great white egrets at the edge of the water.” Gisbert Hiller, volunteer at the Upper Lusatia Moorland Biosphere Reserve “It is always a pleasure to show the national park with its motto ‘Let na- ture be nature’ to hiking groups, whether children or adults, and see how they gain a greater understanding for nature. Hiking in the fog between dead wood at the side of the trail is a spooky highlight. It’s easy to imagine a dwarf behind every tree and bush, telling strange stories.” Jutta Obst, volunteer at Harz National Park VOLUNTEER MANAGEMENT: A WEALTH OF EXPERIENCE AND IDEAS “Volunteers in Parks” are welcome!

    Landmark 4 Brocken ® On the 17th of November, 2015, during the 38th UNESCO General Assembly, the 195 member states of the United Nations resolved to introduce a new title. As a result, Geoparks can be distinguished as UNESCO Global Geoparks. As early as 2004, 25 European and Chinese Geoparks had founded the Global Geoparks Network (GGN). In autumn of that year Geopark Harz · Braunschweiger Land · Ostfalen became part of the network. In addition, there are various regional networks, among them the European Geoparks Network (EGN). These coordinate international cooperation. 22 Königslutter 28 ® 1 cm = 26 km 20 Oschersleben 27 18 14 Goslar Halberstadt 3 2 1 8 Quedlinburg 4 OsterodeOsterodee a.H.a.Ha H.. 9 11 5 13 15 161 6 10 17 19 7 Sangerhausen Nordhausen 12 21 In the above overview map you can see the locations of all UNESCO Global Geoparks in Europe, including UNESCO Global Geopark Harz · Braunschweiger Land · Ostfalen and the borders of its parts. UNESCO-Geoparks are clearly defi ned, unique areas, in which geosites and landscapes of international geological importance are found. The purpose of every UNESCO-Geopark is to protect the geological heritage and to promote environmental education and sustainable regional development. Actions which can infl ict considerable damage on geosites are forbidden by law. A Highlight of a Harz Visit 1 The Brocken A walk up the Brocken can begin at many of the Landmark’s Geopoints, or one can take the Brockenbahn from Wernigerode or Drei Annen-Hohne via Schierke up to the highest mountain of the Geopark (1,141 meters a.s.l.).

  • Case Study Eifel Initiative Final
    Eifel Initiative for the Future, Germany Urban-rural linkages enhancing European territorial competitiveness - Mini case study on business clusters Short description of the setting The Eifel region is a low mountain range in western Germany, bounded on the north, east, and south by the rivers and vineyards of the Ahr, Rhine, and Moselle, and by the forest of the Ardennes of Belgium and Luxembourg in the west. It covers an area of nearly 700.000 ha total, comprising 10 districts in two German Federal States (three districts in North Rhine-Westphalia and seven in Rhineland-Palatinate). All in all, the Eifel region gives home to about 900.000 inhabitants in 53 cities and towns. Amidst the cities of Aachen, Koblenz and Trier which mark the borders of Eifel, the region is rather lacking in infrastructure, with few industrial clusters, but mining, agriculture, viniculture, forestry and dairy farming predominating, and tourism as a growing sector. Savage beauty was and is one of the features of Eifel, and since 2004 about 110 km² of the Eifel have been protected as the nature reserve “Eifel National Park”. Vis à vis these conditions, the need for a joint strategy and co-operation for the development of Eifel as a competitive region was recognised by many actors across borders, and first implemented for the field of tourism. Innovative activity "Eifel - We are future" – with this motto, 10 Eifel districts, 53 local governments und 8 regional chambers of commerce in the two neighbouring German Federal States of Rhineland-Palatinate and North Rhine-Westphalia and the German-speaking Community of Belgium have affiliated in the association “Eifel Initiative” in 2005, and thus established a remarkable regional partnership for creation of value.

  • HARZ MOUNTAINS 229 Quedlinburg Thale Gernrode © Lonely Planet Publications Planet Lonely © Wernigerode Harz National Park Brocken Goslar (Harz Journey; 1824)
    © Lonely Planet Publications 229 Harz Mountains The Harz Mountains rise picturesquely from the North German Plain, covering an area 100km long and 30km wide at the junction of Saxony-Anhalt, Thuringia and Lower Saxony. Although the scenery here is a far cry from the dramatic peaks and valleys of the Alps, the Harz region is a great year-round sports getaway, with plenty of opportunities for hiking, cycling and skiing (downhill and nordic) in and around the pretty Harz National Park. The regular influx of visitors in all seasons is testament to the enduring appeal of the Harz; historically, too, its status as a prime national holiday destination has never been questioned. From 1952 until reunification, the region was divided between West and East Germany, effectively becoming an uneasy political holiday camp straddling the Iron Curtain. The Brocken (1142m) is the focal point, and has had more than its fair share of illustri- ous visitors: the great Goethe was frequently seen striding the local trails and set ‘Walpur- gisnacht’, an early chapter of Faust, on the mountain, while satirical poet Heinrich Heine spent a well-oiled night here, as described in Harzreise (Harz Journey; 1824). Elsewhere the charming medieval towns of Wernigerode and Quedlinburg pull the crowds, while equally venerable steam trains pull them along between the mountain villages, spas and sports resorts that litter the region. Get out your knee socks or your ski mask and treat yourself to a taste of the active life. HIGHLIGHTS Pagan Rituals Trek to the Brocken or
