Description

This stroller-friendly pleasure hike starts at the parking lot Würfelehütte on Virger Tratte. From here you follow the gentle path to the west. After about 400 meters you will reach the Steinbildhauerwerkstatt Virgen. Here you can watch the many artists of the Virgen Valley at work during the summer months and learn interesting anecdotes from the life of artists during a conversation. After the Steinbildhauerwerkstatt, a small path leads through the Skulpturenpark, where you can enjoy the impressive works of art in all their glory. The biotope at the end of the Park invites you to linger. The way back is via the opposite side of the river.
