National Park Children and Youth Groups
Berchtesgaden National Park has 5 groups for children and young people between 6 and16 years old. Each group meets one day a week in the afternoon for two hours. They discover and explore nature in their local environment, experience the seasons together, play, do handicrafts, build camps and do much more. Usually the children are part of the group for several years, which enables a continuous and sustainable education and, by including the whole family, contributes to a higher acceptance of the national park.
