Planetenlehrpfad Bonn, Planet trail in Bonn, Germany
The Planetenlehrpfad extends along the Rhine River for 5.9 kilometers, featuring bronze plates representing each planet of the solar system to scale.
The educational path was inaugurated in September 2002 following two years of preparation by students from the Bertolt Brecht Comprehensive School in Bonn.
Each installation includes detailed information about the planets in both standard text and Braille, making astronomical education accessible to all visitors.
The trail begins at the Old Waterworks with a 1.5-meter diameter sun model and continues north through Gronau to Graurheindorf harbor.
At a scale of 1:1 billion, the distance between Earth and Moon measures 38 centimeters, while the nearest fixed star would be located at Earth's circumference.
