Strolling as if in Madeira

In the picturesque region of Upper Palatinate, Germany, a new addition to the local landscape has caught the attention of residents and visitors alike. The Schweinmühle grounds, a popular summer destination for campers, vacationers, families, hikers, and beer garden enthusiasts, now boasts a new Nature Park Information Center.

The idea for this educational and informative hub originated from the Nature Park Association, and it serves as another building block in the region's growing image. District Administrator Andreas Meier, expressing his delight, likened the forest experience trail at Schweinmühle to the beautiful island of Madeira.

The Nature Park Information Center, nestled within the Senft family's vacation farm, offers a wealth of local exploration. Roll-up banners, display cases, and promotional materials provide visitors with a comprehensive understanding of the nature park and its offerings.

Mayor Karlheinz Budnik praised the Senft family for their foresight and innovative spirit in creating the forest learning trail. The trail, which focuses on ecological topics, animal information, insect hotels, and the importance of deadwood trees, has become even more attractive with the opening of the new center.

Visitors to the opening events were treated to a snack by the Senft family, and the walk on the forest experience trail and the visit to the Nature Park Information Center are free and engaging for both young and old.

Elsewhere in Germany, the world of figure skating was left in shock following the tragic deaths of two young athletes in separate accidents. Meanwhile, in Tirchenreuth, a convicted terrorist is appealing against the revocation of his deportation ban.
