Over a length of approx. 6 km we hiked on natural paths over a gentle range of hills through the impressive deciduous forest, which mainly consists of beeches.

The path is developed as a nature adventure trail with numerous leisure and adventure elements and also offers enough resting points, in short an adventure trail for the whole family.

So you should plan at least 3 hours with breaks.

A green classroom can be used for an impromptu lesson. Sufficient teaching material can be found everywhere.

Unfortunately, due to the natural conditions, the path could not be made barrier-free.

Please just hike with appropriate clothing and sturdy shoes. Especially in damp weather, the flooring is not just slippery on inclines.

On many sections you have the opportunity to bypass wet spots on a wood chip path.

Very nice circular route without the hustle and bustle. Many stations for young and old to join in. A special kind of forest experience. Keep it up!
