Out of the shoes - into the pleasure! Walk barefoot over hill and dale and feel nature under your feet - at the barefoot park in the Joglland - Waldheimat region!

More and more often, doctors discover the positive effect of walking barefoot on the human body and its health. Quite apart from improving blood circulation in the legs and veins, a lap around the barefoot park also acts like a massage for the soul. Body and mind find harmony, relaxation and joy of life!

On three different routes with a total of 30 stations you can feel nature under your feet at the barefoot park in Wenigzell. A wide variety of surfaces, such as basalt chippings, river pebbles or clinker stones, but also a very special spider web, an ABC forest or a wobbly beam await you!
