On a slope, protecting yourself from looks is not easy
The perfect privacy for a garden on a hillside
From a garden on a hillside opens up a wonderful panoramic view of the surrounding area. However, it requires a well-thought-out planning in order to shield foreign views of your own use of the garden in a targeted manner, as far as possible, with a privacy screen tailored to the specific situation of this garden form.
Provide privacy with a high privacy screen
In order not to be constantly exposed to the gaze of neighbors and neighbors in spite of the slope of your own garden, you can use high shrubs or trees to provide effective privacy around your own property. However, you must not only pay attention to the broad growth of these plants at the base, but also the legally regulated minimum distances to the property boundary and the respective maximum heights. Even if, at first sight, nobody should be disturbed by the height of your planned sight protection hedge, later, for example, the shadow cast on neighboring agricultural areas can become a point of controversy.
Separate individual garden areas selectively as visible partial areas
With land on a hillside, it is often difficult, if not impossible, to effectively prevent all eyes on your own property. Therefore, the motto for a view protection on a slope is that individual areas are specifically protected with a screen or other type of privacy from prying eyes. A natural swimming pond or a swimming pool, such as terraces or sitting areas, are among the areas where some privacy can mean a high quality of life in the garden. In principle, different types of screen are suitable for this purpose:
Different approaches to different aesthetic preferences
As long as the substructure has been tested for its stability and slipping resistance for heavy visual protection types such as stone baskets, screens on a level across the slope are generally not a problem. However, it does not look the same if a regular or standard privacy screen is used irregular slope to be built. In order to avoid large gaps and consequently the need for larger earthworks, screens should be strung together as narrow as possible. Uncomplicated it is usually when a green screen is used, since the usual types of cypress and the cherry laurel can be easily cut diagonally at a slope on the top of the hedge.
Tips
Protect individual garden areas in a targeted manner with well thought-out privacy screens from the outside. It can help if swimming pools or sitting areas in the green are already created from the beginning in the middle of the plot, so that there is still enough room for the desired privacy.
