We normally see the landscape around us, and the forest in particular, as a symbol of stability. But here, too, there is always change and transformation, often over generations, but sometimes within a very short space of time: drought, bark beetles, storms, heavy rain, fire and cultivation.
The forest-water-change trail invites you to trace these processes. It focuses on our environment in the here and now, looks back over the past hundred years and looks ahead to future developments.
This is the shorter loop of the forest-water-change trail with approx. 3.5 km and 115 meters of elevation gain
The trail runs along steep, narrow paths in places, which require sure-footedness and good footwear.
Follow the signs for the Forest-Water-Walking-Trail
Sturdy shoes and appropriate clothing
