    The 8 km long nature trail in the Raeren forest runs mainly along the old railway line and forest paths. It offers young and old visitors a variety of information about nature. There, you will learn a lot of interesting facts about animals and plants, about streams, the aquatic ecosystem, forests, flower meadows as well as playful suggestions for young nature lovers. A total of 14 stations are scattered along the trail, offering a discovery of nature for the whole family. In future, an arboretum along the nature trail will invite visitors to discover native tree and shrub species.

    The forest playground along the route invites the whole family to take a break.
