Bird safari and jungle trail Grumsin in the Schorfheide with children
Activities: We explored the Grumsin Beech Forest, a UNESCO World Heritage site. We walked on four different hiking trails, including the Urwaldpfad. We saw fallen trees, examined giant tree mushrooms, and watched the water move in a swamp. We also enjoyed the colorful autumn foliage
Highlights: Our son had a real adventure. He was fascinated by the fallen trees and the root systems. He examined the mushrooms. We enjoyed the views of the small forest lake and listening to the unknown bird sounds. "Urwald? Here? We are not in Costa Rica!" our son said ✨
