About this place

The outdoor trail is especially suitable for the elderly and those with reduced mobility. Users of rollators and wheelchairs, visually impaired people, and those suffering from memory problems can all move freely on the path. The park has a 250-meter long forested main trail and an additional 150-meter trail connecting it to the health centre. With resting and seating areas, the trails are well suited for outdoor recreation and nature observation. The main and additional trails are about three metres wide, gravel-surfaced paths. On the completely flat main trail, the journey for those with memory problems is made easier by a handrail running along the inner edge of the path, which guides the walker safely back to the starting point. Movement is also guided by a 30 cm wide stone border on the other side of the path. Resting places have been built every 50 metres along the well-lit paths, with benches of different heights and designs. The benches on the main trail are golden yellow and on the connecting trail, orange.
