Excursion

Discovering nature through drawing

23.08.2025
We take a leisurely stroll and settle down in different places, devoting our attention to the nature around us. We record what catches our eye and listen to short stories about the flora, fauna and history of this unique landscape.

Under expert guidance, we draw in various places, focusing on the plant world. Various mosses, colorful mushrooms, cracked pine nuts and other traces of animals, lichen-covered conifers, tree seedlings and gnarled growth forms: the variety of motifs is huge.

Under the direction of  Andrés Salazar, scientific illustrator and Martina Oettli, Head of Environmental Education
