The Forest and Lots of "Wow"

Many adults appreciate the forest as a place of tranquility. Kids, on the other hand, want more action. Here at Hochreiter Forest Park (formerly Hochreiter Eco Park), we offer both: relaxation and exciting discoveries. Or as we call it: the forest—and lots of “wow” moments! We do everything we can to inspire wonder in children and give parents a chance to relax.

You’ll find local animals to feed and pet, a water playground, and a large forest marble run. You can truly savor nature here with us—not least in our new “Baumhaus” restaurant, which serves regional delicacies and features a sun terrace. A new crawling and play area also awaits you here. The Waldpark—it’s safe to say—is located in paradise. Or, to be more precise: right on Teichalmstraße in the Almenland Nature Park.

Come on by—whether you want to let loose or just relax, we look forward to seeing you!
