Hiking

On the gnome trail we get a diverse insight into the life of the capercaillie and experience the story of the gnome postman Ferdinand live! Our tip: After the gnome trail, take a look at the climbing forest at the Feldberger Hof family hotel and have fun high up in the trees.

You can park in the parking garage at Feldberg: Dr. Pilet-Spur 2, 79868 Feldberg – or you can take bus number 7300.

Gnome House on the Gnome Trail

Highlight • Trail

Very nice way for the kids. They had a lot of fun. But only works when it's dry. Otherwise, the Wichtelpfad is a muddy round 😁

May 27, 2025,Waldwichtelpfad am Feldberg 🥾🌲

Anyone visiting Feldberg with children should definitely take this hike at the foot of the mountain. There's no dedicated hiking trail for children at the top of Feldberg, so this trail is perfect. It starts opposite the parking garage and leads directly into the forest 🌲

cute story about Anton, the grouse, and above all lovingly designed stations. The kids walk the path without even complaining about hiking 😁
Unfortunately not suitable for prams, but you can borrow stretchers from the House of Nature.

Today, grandchildren are going on a hike along the Wichtelpfad (Witch Trail) – an adventure in the wild forest with many surprises for young and old :-))
