Forest nature trail, Koglhof

Open
A circular route around Koglhof in the Almenland Nature Park, with a lot of interesting information about the forest flora and forestry.

The forest nature trail in Koglhof is an approx. 3 km long hiking and walking path with information boards about the forest and nature. The path is intended to awaken an understanding of the function of the forest in the cycle of nature and for human health.

At the Somer toboggan run or at the motor skills park in Koglhof there is also a nice place to stop for a break in the "Rodlstub'n".
