On the outskirts of Kassel, at the Hessenschanze in Kirchditmold, there is a particularly beautiful place: the Hessenschanze nature playground with its wooden play equipment and a good quality of stay for children and adults.
There is a climbing combination with a slide, a hanging frame and a swing set with a toddler swing. The original wooden locomotive with trailers, which was very popular with groups of children, is currently being renovated and will be rebuilt at a later date.
The special thing about the playground is its unique location: just a ten-minute walk from the terminus of streetcar line 8, children can immerse themselves in the local countryside and gain unique experiences of nature. There are paths, flowering meadows, bushes to hide in, the forest with large trees and branches to build teepees.
The playground is also suitable for environmental education excursions, as the mixed deciduous forest is home to almost all native tree species, including birch, beech, field maple, sycamore, Norway maple, hornbeam, willow, bird cherry, oak, ash, lime and elm, as well as many shrubs.
