Why we included this place
Some playgrounds stand out because of spectacular equipment, others because of their setting. Strohweg offers both. Children can climb, slide and ride the zipline while enjoying a real woodland environment with birdsong and towering trees all around. The natural shade makes it especially pleasant during the summer months and creates a relaxed atmosphere for the whole family.
