Tree top path in the Nuremberg Tiergarten: Nature experience high above the ground
a new horizon in the Nuremberg Tiergarten
Nuremberg (dpa/lby) - The Nuremberg Tiergarten has taken an innovative path with the recently opened tree top path to sharpen the awareness of climate change and the protection of forests. The opening took place in the presence of Mayor Marcus König (CSU) and zoo director Dag Encke. This new educational project is particularly targeting younger generations and offers a unique perspective on the tree tops at a height of 20 meters.
a brief overview of the Klimawaldpfad
- The tree top path runs over 450 meters and has a width of 2.5 meters.
- It is designed in such a way that it is also accessible to strollers and wheelchairs.
- The total costs for the construction amount to 4.1 million euros, financed by the Future Foundation of Sparkasse Nuremberg.
- In addition, around 750,000 euros from reserves were provided for the construction of animal enclosures.
meaning of the project for education
The tree top path is not only used as an experience space, but also as a "green classroom", where educational institutions such as kindergartens and schools receive targeted offers on the subject of climate change and the forest ecosystem. This shows that the zoo is pursuing a modern understanding of education in which the focus is on learning in nature.
The role of animals in the new concept
An additional feature of the path will be the integration of enclosures for forest rates such as owls, cross -singles and amphibians. These animals will help promote understanding of local ecosystems and to bring biodiversity closer to visitors. Some of these new elements are gradually implemented after the opening, which increases the anticipation for additional experiences.
The access and the orientation of the path
Although the tree top path is mainly designed for visitors to the zoo, there is currently no separate access only for the path. This integration shows the intention of the animal garden to include all guests in the new educational offers and to promote exchange through important environmental issues.
conclusion: one step into the future
Overall, the new tree top path in the Nuremberg Tiergarten is not only an expansion of the visitor attractions, but also an ambitious project to promote environmental awareness and to form the upcoming generation. With a clear focus on climate change, this project will be an important tool in order to deepen understanding of the important ecological relationships and to transfer responsibility for our environment.
