Do you feel like getting some fresh air and marveling at the giant trees? Then off you go on a walking or running tour through the spa park. On its length of 1.5 km you will see a lot in the spa park. Discover the spa park!

Starting from the park side of the Kurhaus, the Kleine Kurparkrunde, with a length of only 1,560 m, is ideal for a leisurely stroll in between or for warming up and winding down before and after a more intensive workout. The flat course of the route allows very gentle exercise even for those with respiratory or joint problems. Enjoy the spa park with its wealth of plants as a natural backdrop - it is a power source of nature. On the way, you have the option of branching off into the large spa park circuit. It is an extension of the Small Spa Park Circuit, a little more demanding and a little longer.

Tips when reporting an emergency – Answer these six WH questions: What happened? How many people are injured? Where did the accident happen (are there GPS coordinates)? Who is reporting the incident (callback number)? When did the accident happen? What is the weather like at the site of the incident?

Proper backpack packing makes many things easier: Pack heavy things first. The water bottle should always be within reach in a side pocket. All the things that are often needed, such as sunglasses, camera or hiking map, belong on top. An emergency kit, including blister plasters, belongs in every rucksack and it is always advisable to dress in layers.

Especially great on hot days - the giant trees provide a lot of cool shade.
