Like our grandfathers we will fell a really big tree – united and armed with a cross cut handsaw. Wouldn't you be proud to accomplish this task as a team?
Armed with an old crosscut handsaw and an axe, and under the guidance of an experienced fosterer you can cut down a big tree. It's hard work, but you'll be all the prouder when you've done it. In addition to teamwork, muscle power and learning the right techniques, you will learn how to fell a big tree professionally. So that the tree falls exactly where the forester wants it to.
During this tour you will get to know exciting details about the Swiss forest, such as why it is good for the forest and nature to cut down the old giants. In addition, "Holzer coffee" and sausage will be freshly prepared over the fire.
