Barefoot over clay grass, sand, stones and bark mulch
Der Gang über verschiedene Bodenbeläge stimuliert den ganzen Organismus ähnlich wie eine Fußreflexzonenmassage. In Bad Sobernheim, das etwa vier Kilometer von Menschels entfernt liegt, befindet sich mit einer Länge von 3,5 Kilometern der längste Barfußpfad Deutschlands, der mit energiegeladenen Abschnitten gespickt ist. Spüren Sie Ihre Füße einmal ganz anders, wenn Sie durch das Lehmstampfbecken waten oder auf prickelndem Untergrund balancieren. Krempeln Sie die Hosen hoch, wenn es durch die erfrischende Nahefurt auf der anderen Seite des Flusses wieder zurückgeht. Hier lernen Sie das Nahetal ganz intensiv kennen.
Die Fahrt mit dem Auto dauert ungefähr fünf Minuten. Mit dem Fahrrad sind es etwa 15 Minuten und zu Fuß etwa 40 Minuten.
