What you need:
👉 Small natural onjects - like a stick or piece of bark 🍂
How to play
- Everyone finds a small item to throw - not too big or heavy. A pinecone, a little stick or bark will do just fine.
- The first player throws their object and runs to where it lands.
- Then the second player throws and runs to their landing spot.
- You can also play in teams: one throws, the other runs!
Our tip!
Adjust the game to fit your group's throwing strength and age - or make it a relay challenge in teams!
💡 Nature in motion - Just behind the water treatment plant, the Mühlbach stream and the Salzach river merge - a natural spectacle you don't get to see every day! From the higher bank, you'll get a great view of how the two waters come together and flow as one. But the Salzach isn't always this calm - after heavy rainfalls, water levels can rise fast. That's why flood protection is such an important topic in our region.
🐄 Hiking & grazing - This beautiful landscape isn't just a place for adventure and relaxation - it's also the "garden" where feed grows for the animals that graze here.
👉 Please stay on the marked trail as much as possible. In this section, horses also graze along the way.
📍 Important! Their drinking spot is at the riverband, so they occasionally cross the hiking path.
The animals are used to people and generelly very calm - but they don't need any attention from hikers. Because fair play between people and animals is important to us, here's everything you need to know for a relaxed and respectful experience.
