A beautiful path, first along the Ettwiesenbach stream and then along the Erms canal, over which a small bridge leads.

A very beautiful fountain with figures. A man is pouring water into a cup, a woman is standing next to him, and a goose can be seen in the background.

Numerous beautiful hiking trails lead through the Rainerwald forest! There's also plenty to discover, including a sky lounger, topographies, a book exchange cabinet, and much more.

A really nice idea is the creative cabinet at the "Waldstrolche" forest kindergarten. Here, you can buy beautiful, handmade items every day from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Candles, tea lights, decorative items, paper hangers, and much more are available. Payment can be made in cash or even by smartphone.

This bike path is truly exemplary. It's good that the bike path to Grafenberg has now been built.
