Fairytale forest Bad Breisig

Bad Breisig Fairy-Tale Forest on the Middle Rhine

The Bad Breisig Fairy-Tale Forest is located on Kesselberg, overlooking the legendary Rhine Valley. It’s deliberately not a modern theme park, but a place full of nostalgia. A lovingly designed walk through the world of the Brothers Grimm fairy tales—quiet and unhurried—just as families have enjoyed it here for generations.

Nostalgia instead of thrills

If you’re looking for big action, this isn’t the place—and that’s exactly what makes the Fairy-Tale Forest so special for many visitors. You stroll from fairy-tale scene to fairy-tale scene and just go with the flow—a little social media detox for the whole family. There’s a bite to eat on the café terrace. After your walk, you also pay the admission fee there, in cash or by card. Your dog is welcome too, and there’s a water bowl on the terrace.

The Fairy-Tale Forest itself is step-free. From the car park, however, there’s a staircase of around 30 steps up. Step-free access is possible via the path “An der Lay”. It’s open from early April to early November: daily from 10 AM to 6 PM in July and August, otherwise at weekends and on public holidays. If you’d like to support the forest, you can take out a fairy-tale sponsorship.
