The experience invites you to not only observe nature, but to truly hear it.

Through a special sound exploration, you will discover a rich and often overlooked soundscape – from the rustling of leaves, birdsong or the murmur of water to subtle vibrations and barely perceptible micro-sounds, for example in moss and underground.

About the experience

Before the workshop, participants receive backpacks containing all the equipment needed to listen to and record the sounds of the natural environment: a tripod, a recording device, various types of microphones.

With the help of various microphones and recording equipment, you will enter the world of so-called field recording, where listening becomes exploration. You will create unique audio recordings that tell the stories of nature. This is a great opportunity to express your creativity and create lasting memories. It has been proven that listening to nature reduces stress, improves concentration and strengthens the feeling of inner peace.

 There are two versions of the experience available: a family-friendly sound walk that playfully combines exploration and collaborative creation, and a more in-depth experience for individuals or small groups who want to explore nature more independently and introspectively. Regardless of your choice, you will take home a unique audio recording – a personal memory of nature, captured in sound. At the end of the experience, each participant receives the sounds they recorded as a gift on a personal USB stick.
