The City Garden as a Green Experience Space
The City Garden Zeppelinallee is considered a green oasis close to the city and covers around 22 hectares. This offers plenty of space for family experiences, physical activity, and small breaks in between. The park is also closely connected to family life in Gelsenkirchen and is the venue for further family offerings.

Educational Value with Hands-On Nature Knowledge
The rally addresses child-friendly questions, such as the age of trees or the color of plants. This is where learning experiences are created: children observe, ask questions, and discover relationships in nature. For the age group of 4 to 7 years, this format is particularly well-suited because it combines movement, wonder, and simple knowledge impulses.
