THE STORYTELLING

Melissa’s Told Moments

The core of the outing is Melissa’s live storytelling: a walking performance that animates the landscape and invites adults and children alike to listen closely as the trail reveals its surprises.

THE NATURE

A Subtle, Rich Landscape

The route follows a discreet but remarkably rich stretch of nature along the sentier, where quiet observation and the cadence of the conteuse combine to reveal local flora and atmosphere.

THE AFTER

Picnic or Café with Historic Trains

Participants may bring a picnic to share with the storyteller or choose to reserve a table at the nearby restaurant Bei der Giedel to extend the visit and watch the historic trains later in the afternoon.
