The newly designed Bee Nature Trail follows the Reither Forest Path, offering a fascinating look into the world of wild and honeybees. Over a distance of about three kilometers, 14 stations with informative display boards explain the vital role of these small pollinators and many other helpful creatures that contribute to the forest ecosystem.
The trail provides insights into the life of bees – from the structure of honeycombs to the bee dance and their winter survival in the hive. It also highlights their diverse habitats: forest clearings, deadwood, water sources, and gardens all serve as vital food and shelter areas. The close relationship between humans and bees is another important topic along the route.
This path invites visitors to observe, listen, and develop a deeper understanding of nature. It helps explain why bees are essential for the entire ecosystem and shows how everyone can play a role in protecting them.
