The Gießen climbing forest is located in the forest around the Schiffenberg.
Among other things, the climbing forest offers two of the longest zip lines ever. Anyone who climbs the black course up to a height of 20 meters will be rewarded with a 460-meter flight through the forest and over meadows.

Hiking

The climbing forest on the Schiffenberg is characterized by the fact that it is very safe. At the beginning of each climbing tour, you clip yourself into the existing rope using a pulley device that is firmly attached to your personal climbing harness. This rope is continuous until the end of each tour. So you can't fall out at any point. There is also one of the longest zip lines (460m) on one tour. In the middle of the forest, in the fresh air between tall trees, which increases the fun factor even more.
