Low rope structures for the high art of balance

HIGH ALTITUDE RUSH IN THE VALLEY

The focus here is on special rope structures that run a maximum of one metre above the ground. Together we focus on balancing and moving at jumping height and playfully gain experience in nature. The focus is not on adrenaline, but on playing with balance. Aren't we also constantly searching for it in everyday life? Away from fear of heights and thrills, a varied, low rope course creates the framework to train concentration and strengthen confidence in one's own abilities. Under the expert guidance of National Park Rangers, we learn how to skilfully master various elements, overcome obstacles and train our own balance.

Let's be honest - isn't there perhaps something of an artist or climber in each of us? Let's find out together!

NATURE DETECTIVES: IN SEARCH OF CLUES

Imagine you are out in the forest with your friends for a day. What do you leave behind? Only footprints or one or two more tracks? An apple core, crushed grass or maybe you went to the toilet in the forest? (Don't worry, we'll be very discreet about this.) Animals leave exactly the same traces in nature: footprints or footprints, remains of food, droppings or even dropped antlers or bones. We get to know some of our forest inhabitants - from the bark beetle to the lynx - and go on a search together: Which animals live here in the forest and how can we tell?
Let's be curious nature detectives and find out who has left many a trace here in the forest!

Experience nature up close

Wilderness in the Gesäuse

"Well, it looks wild there!" - when parents say that about a child's room, they are not exactly thrilled. But when we say the same about the water, the forest or the rocks in the Gesäuse National Park, we are usually fascinated. Why? "Wild" in a protected area means that nature can develop freely: Water flows freely, trees are allowed to grow old, boulders tumble down. In this programme we look together at what it means when nature develops "wildly" and humans (almost) do not intervene. We go in search of animals that can only live in dead wood and explore why neither the forest nor the fallen boulders need to be cleaned up here.

So, let's explore the "wild" Gesäuse together and discover how beauty unfolds in apparent chaos.

 

Details: May to October, from 4th grade onwards
