The trail has several stations that aim to provide suggestions on how you can do something for your physical and mental health in nature. Landscape therapy is part of the so-called "new nature therapies" and as such is very well suited to having a preventative effect on physical and mental health.
The landscape therapy trail takes you from station to station. However, you are not bound to the prescribed route. You can just as easily find your own way or just visit individual stations. Or visit the stations that are particularly good for you again and again!

Info point
Station 1 of the Landscape Therapy Trail - Landscape frame
Experience After you have passed the landscape window and left everyday life behind you, you will enter a platform that seems to be in "contrast" to nature. Take your time and sit down on one of the benches or stand by the railing. Take in the view of the water and the floodplain-like landscape beyond. Feel how calming this view is. Forget everyday life in an "unstrained attention" for the "here and now". Consciously take in the sounds and smells of nature, the colors of the season and the movement of birds and aquatic animals. You will feel the calming effect of these perceptions before you leave this station.
