Forest Bathing Trail Assamstadt

"Being in the forest is good for body and soul"

In the Stöckig forest area in the district of Assamstadt, the forest bathing experience trail has been opened. It leads to a total of nine stations where you can try out various perception and mindfulness exercises.

The focus of forest bathing is the health-supporting and relaxing effect of the forest on topics such as mindfulness, near-far sight, smelling, touching, hearing, breathing, sunbathing, and deceleration. There is also a worry parking spot available. Body, mind, and soul are meant to come to rest. The trail can be individually walked during the day, outside of dusk.

Forest bathing slows you down and has a calming effect on body and soul through the conscious absorption of the forest atmosphere. In Japan, forest bathing has been praised since the 1980s as part of a healthy lifestyle and is used not only for prevention but is also medically prescribed.
