On the Alpine Newt Hiking Trail through the Planetal ValleyThis hiking trail in the High Fläming takes us through the habitat of one of Brandenburg's rarest amphibians. The highly endangered alpine newt (Ichthyosaura alpestris) is typically a resident of water-rich forested areas in the low mountain ranges and here lives at its northeasternmost distribution boundary. Only during the early spring mating season do the males display a blue back coloration; then, with some luck, one can spot the animal near the old swimming pool at Raben. The Planetal Valley has also been designated as a nature reserve to protect the alpine newt.

Who would have thought that hiking through the Fläming Nature Park in Saxony-Anhalt as well as the High Fläming Nature Park in Brandenburg could be so informative and educational?
The Climate-Stelae Trail is not an ordinary hiking trail. The four granite stelae that make it up connect the physical dimension, the granite of the stelae, with the virtual dimension, the learning content behind them on the Internet. If you scan the QR codes on the stelae with your phone, you are redirected to the "Walk for the Future" website of the Foundation for Intergenerational Justice (SRzG) and gain access to various future letters. These letters each describe a positive and a negative scenario of climate change with its impact on the living conditions of future generations. The letters were written from the perspective of several ten-year-old Berlin children from the year 2070. They are addressed to today's population.
