Baumfreunde
Overview
Intro
On an excursion
Between larches, Swiss stone pines and spruces, in the middle of the spicy forest air, individual deciduous trees and other forest dwellers will surprise you. Old and young tree wonders tell stories and invite you to go on a journey of discovery with all your senses.
On our hike for young and old, we immerse ourselves in the fascinating world of the mountain forest. Widely branched, gnarled, with furrowed bark or a dense root system, some trees have been standing here for hundreds of years. How do they withstand the icy cold or wind? How old are they really? And what do we hear when we prick up our ears? We are sure to find traces of the animals that live among these trees along the way.
Leader: Iris Eckert, environmental educator
