Forest workshop

AT THE ENNSTAL VISITOR CENTER

Microscopes, specimens and natural materials: in our forest workshop, children and young people get active themselves. We explore the trees of the forest wilderness, mysterious wood-eaters and creatures in the forest floor.

Forest workshop

Offer for school groups at the Ennstal Visitor Center, bookable all year round

There are five programs to choose from:

  • Animal tracks
    Footprints, feeding marks, feathers and pellets tell us stories about the lives of wild animals. We learn to interpret some of the many different tracks.

  • Trees of the forest wilderness
    Which leaves and fruits belong to which tree? Our most important indigenous tree species will be explored in a playful way.

  • Wood-eaters - dead wood is life
    Dead wood is a special feature of near-natural forests. Under the microscope, we get to know wood-eaters and their enemies, the wood-eaters.

  • Forest soil habitat
    A wondrous world is hidden beneath our feet. We take a look at the micro-world of the forest floor and discover woodlice, earthworms and millipedes.

  • Climate change - forest
    How does climate change affect nature? We learn important connections in a playful and understandable way and recognize the great importance of biodiversity.
