Intro

The Rilke Foundation and the Pfyn-Finges Nature Park are together organising an ornithological-poetic walk.

We wander through the floodplain forest and a wetland area created a few years ago on the north side of the Rotten. We will listen to the birdsong and will also get to see one or two species. In addition to providing interesting facts about the birds, the two guides will try to familiarise participants with the views and thoughts of the poet and nature observer Rainer Maria Rilke. Let yourself be enchanted by the morning atmosphere, the poetry and the sounds of nature.

The early-morning walk lead along the water meadows of the wild River Rhone, where we will listen to the bird calls and Rilke’s text over the birds.

Let the bird calls inspire you on the ornithological -poetic walks....soft morning atmosphere, a virtuoso bird concert and a magnificent sunrise....it is spring.

We listen to the bird calls and Rilke’s poetic text along the water meadows of the wild River Rhone.

The event is in two languages, German and French.
