The Skulpturenpfad WaldMenschen begins on an open clearing behind WaldHaus and leads into the surrounding woodland. The trail ends at Wonnhaldenrundweg after passing through the woodland. Thomas Rees carved its wooden figures from trees gathered in nearby forests, including fallen trunks with long histories. The surrounding forest keeps changing their wooden surfaces. Near the entrance, Wurzelkopf stands upside down, with plants growing through its wild carved hair. Its rooted hair remains a living detail among the trees. Hexenschuss presents a grinning witch firing an arrow into a man’s back beside the woodland path. The scene carries a dark fairy-tale humour among the trees. Die Baumwelt turns a broken oak trunk into a walk-in structure held together with steel. A mirror waits inside the wooden structure for visitors. Drachennest features a seven-metre dragon carved from fallen oak, guarding its egg within a nest. The carved dragon watches over the surrounding woodland. Other works include sleeping giants, wooden faces, and figures that appear between leaves, roots, and moss. Their wooden forms slowly merge with the surrounding forest.
