During our forest bathing tours, we immerse ourselves with all our senses in the atmosphere of the forest. In doing so, we take time for ourselves and "bathe" in a gigantic sea of plant signaling substances. Forest bathing can relax our nervous system, strengthen the immune system, and give us new energy to tackle everyday tasks with more vigor.

A trip with the Brohltalbahn is more than just a train ride. It is pure everyday deceleration, a true experience of technology and nature. It brings the volcanic region of Laacher See with its unique volcanic landscape to life and gives a sense of the "effort" it takes the locomotives to overcome around 400 meters in altitude between the Rhine and Eifel. Step on board and experience a unique narrow-gauge railway in the attractive landscape of the Eastern Eifel!
