Description

The hike begins at the roundabout and gently ascends towards the village to the edge of the forest. There, the path turns right onto the Badsteig, named after the water channel that runs alongside it. This family-friendly trail invites visitors of all ages to explore nature with all their senses—guided by the stories of Ferlix and Aurelio. Step into the mysterious world of the forests around Pfunds! On this lovingly designed themed trail, you’ll be accompanied by Aurelio, the little “Venediger” man, and Ferlix, the forest gnome, on an exciting journey of discovery through nature. Along several interactive stations, you’ll learn fascinating facts about the forest, its animals, plants, and fungi.
