PhänomexX student laboratory “On the trail of nature”

Im Naturpark Hohe Mark The landscape becomes a learning space and the adventure begins right on the doorstep.

Together with the education association Borken We invite children and young people to experience science in a completely different way at the PhänomexX research lab: lively and full of "aha!" moments. Here, they don't just listen, but experiment, explore, and ask questions. How can I determine the age of a tree? Bridges and eggs—what do these two have in common? Which ideas from nature do we use in our everyday lives? Hydropower, wind power, and photovoltaics—what do they have to do with electricity? And what makes a feather so special? With exciting experiments, creative hands-on stations, and plenty of space for individual discoveries, PhänomexX connects curiosity with nature—and makes complex phenomena playfully understandable.

The Naturpark Hohe Mark It provides the perfect setting: forests, meadows, and bodies of water become an experimental field where learning becomes an experience. This not only leads to new insights but also to enthusiasm for nature, the environment, and science.

PhenomenonX in Naturpark Hohe Mark This is a spirit of inquiry connected to nature, teamwork fueled by the joy of discovery, and education that inspires. Welcome to a program that sparks curiosity and leaves a lasting impression!

Due to renovations, the PhänomexX offer is temporarily unavailable at [location]. NaturparkHouse in Raesfeld not bookable from May to the end of October 2026!

On the upper floor of the NaturparkThe PhänomexX project, located in the house in Raesfeld – right next to the castle – expands the existing educational offerings of the learning workshop and the Naturparkhouse by adding an additional, practical component.

This extracurricular learning location operates under the theme "On the trail of nature" and is divided into three main areas:

  • In the nature (native flora and fauna)

  • For nature (renewable energy)

  • From nature (Bionics)

All students receive a research booklet containing the tasks and experiments. Using this booklet, they work through the individual stations largely independently and in an inquiry-based manner.
