Guided Story

Imagine standing in a place once roamed by emperors hunting in the 14th century. Yes, right here in the Frankfurt City Forest. Behind you stretches the dense Oberwald, a sanctuary for countless bird species, filling the air with their song. Look to your left – do you see the dance of light and shadow on the leaves? It’s almost magical how the sunlight filters through. As you wander further, you might stumble upon small historic boundary stones, marking the old Dreieich hunting grounds. These stones whisper tales of a time when this forest was the essence of wilderness and adventure. Isn't it the perfect escape from the city?
