Listening to the forest: About us
Forest Adventure Centre Ostallgäu – Außerfern e.V.
The tranquillity of the forest is good for the soul, experiences in nature open the senses. With our activity offers, we would like to strengthen the consciousness for the value of the forest and nature. In view of the current situation, this mission seems more important to us than ever before. We want to set impulses that appeal to you, that encourage you and that positively motivate us all to become active for a future worth living.
With our concepts, we would like to cultivate an understanding of nature and the forest and promote future-oriented conduct. In order to do so, we provide children and young people with intensive and lively access to nature as often as possible. Our dedicated team has up-to-date training in forest and nature pedagogy. The supporting association "Walderlebniszentrum Ostallgäu-Außerfern e.V." works closely with the Kaufbeuren Office for Food, Agriculture and Forestry.
