        It is not just the beetle that is to blame, climate change and monocultures also play a no less important role. The beetle only accelerates the process of "changing forest"

                      The Steinle, partly stony path has it all, but is also very idyllic and beautiful.

                        We couldn't get through anymore, unfortunately we had to cancel. The path has become impassable due to the bark beetle and fallen trees.

                          The installations from the bark beetle educational trail have been dismantled, but the path is accessible again and very beautiful.
