On 26 June 2024, it was time for all IDGS employees to get out into the countryside, take off their shoes and feel the beautiful paths. Together we left the hustle and bustle of the big city behind us and hiked through the Egestorf barefoot park for a good 2 hours in perfect weather. Surrounded by woods and meadows, we walked 3 kilometers over a wide variety of surfaces, e.g. moss, blue glass, pine cones, a suspension bridge and mud pools. Stations with objects to balance on, feel and smell boxes and a brine house revitalised the senses and ensured a good mood, relaxation and entertainment.
Afterwards, some of us enjoyed a fish pedicure, a very special experience! Afterwards, we rounded off our excursion with a lovely lunch and lively conversations in the shade of old oak trees.
