The Forest Experience Trail is a circular path for families with children to experience the forest in a playful way.
On the approximately two-kilometre-long Forest Experience Trail, the name says it all. Small and "big" children are invited to experience the forest in a playful way. It is important to take your time to feel, smell, see and hear everything there is to discover in the forest. Attention to detail gives the circular trail a dreamy look. The path leads into the depths of the forest. Adventures big and small can be experienced here. Imagination can be given free rein and you can immerse yourself in the world of the forest with your eyes, ears, noses and hands. The forest adventure trail is also suitable for prams. The entrance is directly at the Königsstuhl, which is easy to reach by mountain railway and by car. In addition, bus line 39 runs regularly from Bismarckplatz to the Königstuhl and line 30 from Universitätsplatz to the observatory stop on the Königstuhl.

Traditional hand puppet theatre in a contemporary form. The play is performed in three-dimensional, elaborate stage sets. The programme is aimed at children between the ages of 3 and 8 and their adult companions.
Puppet Theatre Plappermaul wants to give children their first positive theatre experiences that are more intense than digital media - live and unique at every performance. Children are encouraged to participate emotionally in what is happening on stage and to become active and creative themselves. The theatre brings different generations together through shared experience and is a place of integration and inclusion. In addition to many of its own plays, the Plappermaul also regularly hosts guest performances. The theatre hall in the Pfaffengrund district of Heidelberg has about 70 seats - the younger visitors always sit in the front rows, of course.

The Neckar meadow in Heidelberg offers an ideal space for recreation, play, sport and fun.
Children amuse themselves on the playgrounds, others walk across the meadow and paths, the next play volleyball or sunbathe. The 5-hectare area of the Neckar meadow offers a place for thousands.
Picturesquely situated on the riverbank, you can enjoy a wonderful view of the old town and the castle from here. Walkers stroll along the chestnut avenue at the edge - an extension of the path in the direction of Schwabenheimer Schleuse or Ziegelhausen - and enjoy taking a break here.
The water playground at the DLRG station is a popular meeting place for families, as is the skateboard facility at the Ernst Walz Bridge for sports enthusiasts. The pedal boat rental also offers the opportunity to experience the unique atmosphere from the water. The castle illumination with fireworks, which takes place three times a year, can also be enjoyed particularly well from the Neckar meadow.
