Snow magic in Kassel: Families enjoy the winter in the Habichtswald!

The freshly fallen snow transformed the region around Kassel into a picturesque winter landscape on the weekend, especially on January 11 and 12, 2025. Families and friends flocked to the Habichtswald to take advantage of the cold, sunny weather. At temperatures below freezing, the snowy environment offered ideal conditions for winter activities such as tobogganing, cross -country skiing and relaxed walks.

The sled slope at the telecommunications tower was particularly popular, where children like Romeo (10), Simon (7) and Johann (5) enthusiastically slipped down the slopes. The Wengerek family, consisting of Martin, Michaela and their sons Henry (5), as well as friends Sebastian Barden and Ilda Hujdur with daughter Niam (2), also enjoyed the family outing. The occasion was the return of a ski roof box, but the fun in the snow was clearly in the foreground.

The joy of the first snow in Kassel was unmistakable for young and small. The snow invited to snowball battles, the construction of snowmen and of course extensive tobogganing. Some reports, including Freizeitonster , show a variety of toboggan slopes that are ideal for family outings. A free leisure search engine is also available to discover activities and insider tips in the area.

Smalling is not only an entertaining leisure activity, but also promotes the urge to move, improves the balance and strengthens the muscles. As described on Naturhaus , it offers the opportunity to spend time in nature and enjoy winter beauty. The selection of sled species ranges from classic toboggan slides to robust aluminum sleds to comfortable seat sledges.

parking situation and safety instructions

However, the parking situation around Ehlener Strasse was a challenge. The icy and mirror -smooth substrates caused sheet metal damage on some vehicles that had been parked near the sled slope. It is advisable to drive carefully and explore suitable parking facilities in advance.

Security when sledding should also not be neglected. The recommendations include wearing a helmet, especially at higher speeds. In addition, each slide should be checked for its condition before driving and suitable routes should be chosen without obstacles.

According to the weather forecast, the dry frost weather conditions should last in the coming days before warmer weather starts in the middle of the week. This ensures an additional opportunity to enjoy the winter joys in the Habichtswald and continue to live out the joy of sledding.
