A really well laid out adventure trail. A short hike for the whole family.
⚠️ The path is not suitable for prams! ⚠️

Very nice way for the kids. They had a lot of fun. But only works when it's dry. Otherwise, the Wichtelpfad is a muddy round 😁

Nice playground with a donation can for the trail. From here you can also walk to the House of Nature (is signposted).

May 27, 2025, Waldwichtelpfad am Feldberg 🥾🌲

Anyone visiting Feldberg with children should definitely take this hike at the foot of the mountain. There's no dedicated hiking trail for children at the top of Feldberg, so this trail is perfect. It starts opposite the parking garage and leads directly into the forest 🌲 Numerous lovingly designed stations and the story about the elf postman will keep the kids busy hiking. The stations are so close together that it's a very entertaining hike and the kids never lose interest. The trails are also designed for exciting activities – there are spots for balancing and climbing, and of course, some great forest paths with lots of roots 🥾🤩 In summer, you can probably eat your fill of the numerous blueberries along the way 🫐

cute story about Anton, the grouse, and above all lovingly designed stations. The kids walk the path without even complaining about hiking 😁 Unfortunately not suitable for prams, but you can borrow stretchers from the House of Nature.

Today, grandchildren are going on a hike along the Wichtelpfad (Witch Trail) – an adventure in the wild forest with many surprises for young and old :-))
