Intro

Walk barefoot over pine cones and beech leaves, tune in to your own note with your head in a huge humming stone, or track down insects by following feeding traces in deadwood.

This 2-hour, 2-km circular tour offers fantastic ways to experience the forest – from your ears to your toes! Twelve experience stations plunge you into the wilderness of the natural forest: count growth rings on trees; cross glistening moorland water on a wooden gangway, past weird rootstocks and fallen tree trunks; or take your shoes and socks off for a barefoot experience of different surfaces. Will you dare try it with your eyes closed?

The tour starts and ends at the Sihlwald Visitor Centre.
