I love forest playgrounds. They offer an easy way to spend time in nature with the kids (which isn’t always the case with hikes). The kids stay entertained, and parents can, ideally, relax for a bit, or even join in, climbing, playing, and trying out the various obstacle courses. Most forest playgrounds in South Tyrol are open year-round and free of charge.
