This family's experience:

Activities: We walked the Schlawinerweg, a 4 km easy hike that focuses on a character named Simon. We searched for Simon's hat and the Schlawiner, trying to solve the riddle. Afterwards, we had a meal at the Gasthaus Rebstock

Highlights: We enjoyed the autumn views in Simonswäldertal, and our kids liked the story around it. It was a nice, easy walk, and then we went for a meal. The path is well suited for children ✨
