Fischbach, elementary school (free)
- We start at the elementary school and go left past the Freidhof and uphill into the Roseggersiedlung
- We leave the settlement behind us and follow the forest road to the left after the small chapel above the houses
- There we already find the first boards, which are mounted along the path for (pre-)reading and viewing
- The path is fairly level until we turn right after the Frog King and follow a short, steep forest path uphill, which eventually leads to a large meadow in the middle of the forest: the fairytale meadow
- This place inspires you to be a prince or princess yourself.... Tables and benches invite you to linger
- Then we walk along the forest road until we reach the path above the Roseggersiedlung at the chapel and walk along it again until we reach the parking lot

A few tips on correct and fair behaviour in the forest: (Source: www.bundesforste.at )
Hikers should avoid visits to the forest about 1.5 hours before sunrise and after sunset, as wild animals are particularly active during this time.
Plastic bottles, handkerchiefs, cigarette butts etc. have no place in the forest! Please make sure that you do not leave any rubbish in the forest.
Camping and lighting fires are strictly forbidden in the forest!
In principle, every person is allowed to pick 2 kg of mushrooms and berries per day for personal use. It is only prohibited if the forest owner expressly forbids it.
Small backpack with water bottle (+ provisions)Sturdy shoes
Appropriate clothing - if possible several layers - "onion principle".
Rain and sun protectionWalking sticks as required
Mobile phone
Small first aid kit
