Key facts of the tour
This hike is something for the whole family. It takes you through mixed woodland, over hills and past fields, with marvellous views of the countryside and the Rosenberg fortress. Finally, enjoy a walk through the varied grounds of the Landesgartenschaupark, where there are playgrounds for the little ones and plenty for the grown-ups to experience. The highlight, however, is the Fröschbrunna summer and winter toboggan run, where you can not only speed downhill, but also take the drag lift up in comfort. There are also several places to stop for refreshments along the route.
