Today we stayed dry, short hike from Kirn to Sulzbach and back. Wherever you go, there are great trails in all directions that you can hike. Sometimes shorter, sometimes longer and after every hike you are happy to have done it. Like the Kirn to Sulzbach today.
The insect hotel - artificially created nesting and wintering aid for insects.
An insect hotel - a hotel for insects? What would that be good for? Isn't it the case that insects can be found everywhere because of their size and therefore need neither comfortable accommodation nor a vacation? In the meantime, the natural landscape has changed so much as a result of intensive human intervention that there are only a few natural habitats left for insects. This can be remedied by an insect hotel, which helps the small insects with nesting and wintering.
Pile of stones small habitat great importance
Piles of stones, for example, offer blindworms a place to hide, sand lizards use them as sun spots and hedgehogs find shelter in them. If the cairn is overgrown with moss and lichen, butterflies, spiders and snails will also enjoy it. Piles of stones make a valuable contribution to biodiversity and are a simple means of promoting nature in the settlement area.
