On a winter hike with torches and lanterns, families with children ages 4 and up explore the Steigerwald. Along the way, they learn what trees and animals do during the cold season. The hike ends with punch and gingerbread; St. Nicholas may even make an appearance. You may bring your own lanterns. The event takes place on Sunday, December 6, 2026, at 4 p.m. at the Steigerwald-Zentrum – Nachhaltigkeit erleben, Handthal 56 in 97516 Oberschwarzach. Admission is 5 euros per person.
