Kindererlebnisweg Sieg | Melli's Bienenlehrpfad | Hüppelröttchen in Eitorf

In the heart of the “Wälder auf dem Leuscheid” nature reserve lies the Hüppelröttchen forest area - where “Melli's bee nature trail” runs

You can hike along the forest nature trail on easy forest paths with your parents, teachers or on your own, partly on the “Forester's Trail”. Depending on how long you spend at the information and adventure stations, you should plan two to three hours for the trail.

The forest and bee nature trails partly run parallel to the “Forester's Trail”. The forest nature trail starts at the first station of the bee nature trail and can be walked in any direction.

Children under the age of 12 should only visit the adventure trail when accompanied by an adult. You should not go into the forest in extreme weather such as storms, thunderstorms or heavy rain. Please treat the signs, games and other objects with care and do not leave any garbage lying around. Please show consideration for animals and plants.

The trail is suitable for baby carriages.You will need sturdy shoes on the educational bee trail. It is an advantage to have food in your rucksack as there are no refreshment stops.

If you would also like to solve the Rätesl, you will need the participation card and a pen.

Take part in the competition for little explorers - great prizes await!
