Panarbora Park, Nature discovery park in Waldbröl, Germany
Panarbora Park is a nature discovery park in Waldbröl that spreads across a large wooded area and features a wooden observation tower rising above the tree canopy. A treetop walkway winds through the forest, allowing visitors to explore the woodland from an elevated perspective.
The park originated from a regional competition for infrastructure and tourism development in the early 2000s. The concept emerged to make the local forests accessible to visitors while protecting the natural environment.
The name combines the Latin word 'arbor' for tree with 'pan' from Greek mythology, the god of shepherds and nature. This choice reflects the connection between humans and forests that shapes the entire experience here.
The park offers various accommodations including treehouses, themed hut clusters, and a guest house to suit different visitor preferences. Plan for outdoor walking and wear comfortable shoes, as exploring all the attractions involves time in the forest.
A sensory trail invites visitors to walk barefoot on different ground surfaces and experience varying textures firsthand. Sound installations and a herb garden extend the exploration beyond sight, creating a multi-sensory experience in nature.
