Magical path with imaginative playground

Here you’ll find giant swings, which you can use to swing through the forest like a monkey, and a cobweb for climbing between the trees. You can discover the secrets of the magical forest on the Mountain Forest Trail. Get to know the inhabitants of the forest that are hidden during the day and try to jump further than a deer or a hare!
You can solve these and other riddles by following the Mountain Forest Trail and its interactive stations:
  • How does a mountain forest offer protection against avalanches and landslides?
  • How much energy does a piece of wood contain?
  • Which animal and plant species are important for the mountain forest?
  • How does the forest filter and store our drinking water?

Tips:

If you are in the area, try to visit the Mountain Forest Trail from July to mid-August so you can see the Alpine roses blooming along a steep path called “Alpenrosensteig”.

Start into the Mountain Forest Trail

The enchanting trail has an entrance arch that features the inscription “Steig in den Wald” (= Climb into the forest), which is located opposite the exhibition building looking toward the Forest Snack Bar. You can learn a lot about the value of the precious raw material wood while having a lot of fun along the entire adventure trail.

In a forest clearing, a wooden xylophone is waiting for you to compose a forest melody. The forest fairy, the witch and the wizard accompany you during your exploration of this wild, magical forest and again and again, you are rewarded with a wonderful panoramic view of the Tyrolean mountain landscape.
