A sign at the site explains that the Celts considered trees important living beings and attributed special properties to them. The Tree of Life Circle takes up this concept and presents different tree species, each symbolically assigned to a specific time of year, similar to a Celtic tree calendar.

Here, at the highest point of the Sophienhöhe, a 40-meter-high wooden observation tower called "Waldtänzerin" (Forest Dancer) is planned to be built in the coming years. Completion is scheduled for 2029. The tower will form a central station on the so-called Summit Route, a signposted circular trail connecting the planned visitor and information center with the high points of the observation tower, Höller Horn, and Jülicher Kopf.
