Baumwipfel-Tour "Stroller Route"
The "Baumwipfel-Tour"/stroller route is an 8 km circular route, suitable for adults and children and accessible with a stroller. The route leads around the village of Fischbach and the area around the former Biosphärenhaus with the treetop path. However, the facility is closed.
The stroller route runs on paved and unpaved service roads as well as meadow paths and hiking trails.
From the parking lot at the Biosphärenhaus in Fischbach, the stroller route/Baumwipfel-Tour initially leads into the Spießwoogtal and follows here the Biosphären-Erlebnisweg. It then leads over the premium hiking trail "Brunnen- und Quellenweg" back to Fischbach. From there over the Münchmatt-Park onto the Wasser-Erlebnisweg and back again to the Biosphärenhaus, the starting point of the tour. The total length of the "Baumwipfel-Tour" is 8 km. (A shortcut is given, so that the total length of the tour is reduced to about 6 km - see detailed route description).
A visit to the Biosphärenhaus with its exhibition "Nature-Show-Play" as well as the experience on the treetop path is an absolute must on this tour and a special highlight.

Especially in autumn, it should be noted that fallen leaves on the ground can conceal unevenness, roots, stones or holes in the path. After thunderstorms or rainstorms, trees may still fall or branches may fall afterward. Especially under adverse weather conditions, natural paths can become muddy and slippery. Not all rocks or cliffs are secured with ropes or railings. Surefootedness is required in places. You must expect such path impairments when hiking. If you consider particular sections of the path to be impassable for you, you should avoid them. Despite the "unmistakable" marking of the premium hiking trails, we recommend always carrying a suitable hiking map for safety reasons so that, for example, you can quickly find a safe area during a thunderstorm or emergency.
NOTE:
We strive to announce all closures caused by forestry work, hunting societies on this platform. Nevertheless, there are situations where hiking trails are closed and we may not have been informed. If you encounter closures or detours on site, please follow the instructions for your own safety.
