A beautiful path on soft forest floor leads past several set-up stations. It starts with the woodpecker hole. Mainly intended for smaller children. Long jump, balancing on beams and search games are exciting for the youngest children.

January 11, 2025,kurze Morgenrunde durch den Wald bei Weil der Stadt

At an unusually early hour, I took a little walk through the forest. Past the sports field with barbecue facilities to the Keppiweg. It is a beautiful path with small play and wonder stations for children. I particularly like the part where you have to find the hidden cardboard animals. Maybe you can see them all in my photo!? 😉
