An educational trail is a station-like and thematically prepared walking or hiking trail that leads through the landscape or through built-up areas along scientifically or culturally remarkable objects. The core idea of the nature trail lies in the transfer and expansion of knowledge. Often the individual stations offer imaginative and interactive opportunities for experiencing nature as well as recreation or promote environmental awareness. The nature trails can also occasionally be guided by experts.

In principle, knowledge about flora and fauna, soil science, geology, mining, ecology, astronomy or cultural history can be imparted with the help of such thematic trails. The main topics are diverse, as is the illustrative material used, which can consist of a mixture of showcases and models, maps or plans, various image material and facilities for experimentation.
