Description

From Mels train station, walk to the Seez and follow the lively course of the river. You will come across some gems along the way and hike past renatured river sections. Even from a distance you can see the imposing Tiergarten hill proudly rising from the Seez plain. Arrived at the Tiergartenhügel you walk past the large fairground to the stone sanctuary. For the way back, choose the same route as you came.

TiergartenHügel: Pay attention to the special atmosphere that welcomes you when entering the mixed oak forest at the Tiergarten. The longer you stay in it, the more you feel the almost mystical aura of the place. The Tiergarten Hill was once much larger. As a red island mountain, it protruded from the water of the then much longer Walensee and the Seez. There are many indications that it has been used as a mountain of strength and cult. The stone heligtum consists of two large stones, one of which is a bowl stone with two notched water bowls. They are of positive, life-promoting quality and of high radiation intensity. A little off the beaten track, you will come across two millstones that have never been completely completed. Get involved in a small experiment here. Which stone do you like better? Which one are you drawn to? Stand alternately on both stones. Stay calm and relaxed. Where does it feel better? Take the following insight with you into everyday life: If possible, stay in places where you are comfortable. The millstone energy experiment sensitizes perception and makes it easier for you to consciously listen to your body.
