Upper Hochstein Trail

Highlight • Trail

A wonderful opportunity to live the passion of naked hiking as part of personal freedom and internalize the manifold health benefits. Nakedness should not be pushed to the fringes of society, but rather is an antidote to the diseases of our time: body shame, compulsive consumption, digital alienation. It is lived equality – naked, the female bank director is just as much a human being as the female student. Whoever is naked practices environmental protection – those who wear little clothing have to buy and wash less. Chemicals, microplastics, fibers, ... all this ends up less in our rivers and seas.
Dare to join in!
