What is a nature park?

A nature park is a protected landscape, differing from a conservation protection area in that it is accessible to people and people are even encouraged to head out into the lush surroundings.

This creates sustainable moments of relaxation in nature and provides an awareness of how to interact with nature in the correct manner.

What is a nature park experience all about?

No matter how you experience a nature park, whether it is during leisurely hikes, or on multi-day tours for sporty explorers, woodland experience days for families, while out on strolls to look for wild herbs or culinary hikes, with cheese and honey tasting sessions in the very place they are made – the programme in a nature park is as varied as nature is itself. A nature park experience is always an enriching adventure.
