On the forest adventure trail you will learn the secrets of the forest and come into contact with the Sihlwald from your ears to your toes in an imaginative way.

The forest adventure trail gives an insight into the secrets of the Sihlwald habitat and is a treat for the senses. The path includes 12 stations: counting tree rings, identifying trees, exploring natural sound worlds, observing and discovering amazing things. Walk on a footbridge through the fairytale moor forest, perceive dead wood as a source of life, find out how a tree drinks, compete with the animals in the long jump or the special treat: running with bare feet over the barefoot path and feeling the different surfaces. The forest adventure trail ends at the wilderness playground in the visitor center area.
