    Hiking

    Juniper heath is a general term for heath-like biotope types in which juniper dominates the landscape, regardless of the plant communities found there. Characteristic plant communities can be, for example, lean or dry grassland, semi-dry grassland or dwarf shrub heaths.

    Juniper heaths are found on dry, nutrient-poor sites, usually far from towns and steep, which rarely allow any use other than grazing. They were created in the last few centuries by sheep and goat grazing or cattle grazing.
