The circular route located on the sunny side of Sörenberg is an informative and playful experience – for wrestling fans and everyone who wants to become one.

The Joel Wicki Trail, honoring the Sörenberg wrestling king of 2022, takes the whole family on a short journey where Joel's development and the secrets of freestyle wrestling become visible and tangible. How did freestyle wrestling actually originate? How successful was Joel as a young wrestler? How can a small wrestler unbalance a big one? And can I lift Joel off the ground?
