The information displays provide illustrative presentations about nature and environment and serve as educational material about nature’s processes, situations and capabilities. The aim of the nature trail Rattendorf is, to increase awareness for the environment as well as to convey and expand the knowledge of all visitors, whilst they enjoy nature and relaxation.
