Discover the forest pharmacy: natural remedies in the mountaineering village!

In the mountaineering village of Sachrang, hiking enthusiasts can look forward to an exciting adventure on the theme trail “The Forest Pharmacy”. This unique educational trail, which was prepared not only for nature lovers but also for interested visitors, makes it possible to get to know the local flora better. The idea for this path came about during a leisurely evening walk in the so-called fairytale forest, and has lost none of its fascination since then.

The circular route stretches over approx. 3.5 kilometers and has two smaller climbs. A good 35 different trees and shrubs are signposted here, which not only offer botanical identification signs, but also explain their use as medicinal plants in natural and folk medicine. Some of the plants were specifically replanted to promote biodiversity in the region. This means that the path is not only a pleasure for the eyes and ears, but is also a small contribution to ecological sustainability.

A look at nature

The nature trail combines the beauty of nature with educational information. Every board along the path provides information about the different tree species and their important role in the habitat of Central Europe. For thousands of years, trees have provided people with air, shade in hot summers and peace in stormy times. The parts of the trees — flowers, leaves, or bark — also traditionally serve as medicine and invite you to establish a deeper connection with nature.

The special thing about the path: It is not only suitable for hikers, but also for groups. Guided tours are possible along the tree nature trail, with individual tours available for groups of four or more people. For larger groups there is also the option of a private tour at a flat rate. Anyone interested can find out more about this from alternative practitioner Dorothea Schwierskott. She can be reached on the telephone numbers 08057-2230032 or 0176-99272072 and via email at info@praxis-sachrang.de.

An unforgettable experience

The signage with the words “Waldapotheke” accompanies the hikers on their way. It is also possible to extend or shorten the path, making the trip particularly flexible for families or occasional athletes. This successful combination of relaxation, education and nature experience makes the theme trail a special highlight for everyone who wants to experience the surroundings of Aschau im Chiemgau.

The forest pharmacy is not just a path, but an experience that delights both hiking enthusiasts and nature lovers. Be inspired and discover the treasures that the local forest has to offer - with a decelerating walk on the theme trail in Sachrang.
