„Edi und die Reise zum geheimnisvollen Silberberg“

  • A story to read aloud and read yourself
  • With tips for hiking in the footsteps of the book
  • With a treasure map and lots of leisure tips
  • With child-friendly information about the forest and its animal inhabitants

Getting children to read, learn and be outdoors is often not easy. With the new Bodenmais children's book “Edi and the Journey to the Mysterious Silver Mountain”, everything is now possible at once. The book tells an exciting story about Edi the squirrel, whose tracks families can follow with their children.

That's what it's about: 

Edi lives in the forests around Bodenmais. He is a clever and bright little fellow. But the forest harbors many dangers and unexpected events. When Franzi the bat gets into trouble, Edi rushes to her aid. Can they master the adventure together? On their way, the two encounter many other animal inhabitants of the Bavarian Forest, such as Willy the wild sow and Hugo the stag. The companions also meet the Bodenmais wildlife whisperer “Woid Woife”. Their journey takes them to mysterious places such as the “Magical Waterfalls”, the “Mystical Lake” or into the “Enchanted Forest”.

Hiking in the footsteps of the book

The places where the story of the children's book takes place also exist in reality and are some of the most beautiful natural sights that the Bavarian Forest has to offer. So that children can not only read the story of Edi and his companions, but also discover the forest in their footsteps, the children's book is accompanied by an informative booklet. This provides detailed information for exciting hikes along the paths in the book. The family-friendly tours lead to Bodenmais' local mountain, the Silberberg, to the Rißloch waterfalls, the highest in the Bavarian Forest, to the picturesque Großer Arbersee and to the imposing Riederinfelsen. At around two to a maximum of six kilometers, these hikes are perfect for children.

On a treasure hunt in the forest

As a further incentive, there are four animal stamps made from local tree trunks on these tours. Anyone who finds the hiding places of Edi the squirrel, Willy the wild sow, Franzi the bat and Hugo the deer and collects all the stamps can collect a reward at the tourist information office in Bodenmais. To make the search for the animal friends even more fun, the book comes with a large treasure map. “Edi and the Journey to the Mysterious Silver Mountain” is therefore the ideal book for an eventful family vacation in Bodenmais.

Child-friendly information about the animals

Of course, learning should not be neglected either. That's why the accompanying booklet contains interesting and child-friendly information about every animal that appears in the story. This has been expertly prepared by the Bavarian Forest Nature Park. Numerous leisure tips for families in and around Bodenmais round off the accompanying booklet.
