There's a lot going on at the "Gesund Leben" trade fair - exciting lectures, culinary delights and even the muscles can be exercised after feasting. 

Motivated exhibitors, a large number of interested listeners at lectures and children's hearts beating faster as they climb, ski jump or romp around in the bouncy castle. The "Gesund Leben" trade fair with "Fit & Power" offers a colorful program full of activities for the whole family.

Celine and Frank Heilinger also visited the fair: "We came because of Frank's honey award. We like to stroll through the halls and find out more."

Try it out and join in
"I normally climb trees and in the playground. I've never been on a climbing wall like this before - but it's great fun," says little Aaron enthusiastically. Because the fair is not just for strolling through, but above all for taking part. Beatrix Erlacher-Heinzl wanted to try out what it's like when you can no longer walk: "It's incredibly difficult. Anyone who is healthy should appreciate the fact that they are not dependent on a wheelchair."

Today, Sunday, there is still a chance to visit the fair. Lectures on self-healing or dental implants await visitors as well as family yoga and co. For "Krone" readers, tickets are half-price.
