Ehlscheider Entdeckerpfad

There is much to discover in and around the Ehlscheid Kurpark. The two forest gnomes, Helos and Heloni, take visitors on an approximately 800m circular path that invites participation, wonder, and enjoyment at many stations.

The starting and ending point of the path is the forest playground with its own soccer field and calisthenics fitness station. Here, one should not miss pulling a ball for the marble run at the vending machine. Passing by the grasshopper and the spider web, at the forest school class with blackboard, over balancing stations towards the fairy-tale home of the forest gnomes. Here, the funny trees greet us warmly, until we reach the forest sound station, passing by the funny snake. Upon arriving in the Kurpark, numerous lovely spots are available for a picnic. A refreshing experience awaits visitors at the Kneipp basin with barefoot path. But one can also take a wonderful break at the two fountains. Along the entire circular path, visitors learn interesting facts about plants and animals on information boards. The forest school class provides ample seating and a blackboard - making the path a popular destination for kindergarten and school trips.
