Selected alternatives for you
    The forest adventure trail especially invites children and families to get to know the habitat "forest" in a very diverse, playful way.

    The family-friendly circular route extends over 2.5 km and is marked with small direction signs. A fox named "Foxy" was chosen as the companion and leads visitors through charming beech, oak, and spruce forests as well as along a small creek.

    In addition to explanatory panels, "experience stations" are set up where you can experience and understand the forest directly with all senses: for example, you can hear how wood conducts sound on the felled tree trunk, compete with animals in long jump, better recognize details in nature, dive into the profession of forester, and measure the standing trees.
