Il bosco. Istruzioni per l'uso

by Peter Wohlleben

Die Wälder sind sein berufliches Zuhause, und die Arbeit mit Bäumen ist sein Leben. Bei geführten Waldwanderungen gibt der passionierte Förster und Autor Peter Wohlleben sein enormes Wissen über Bäume weiter. Seine Gebrauchsanweisung ist eine ebenso handfeste wie stimmungsvolle Entdeckungstour. Fundiert und unterhaltsam weist er ein in die wichtigsten Laub- und Nadelbaumarten: was sie kennzeichnet, welchen die Zukunft gehört, welche bei Gewitter wirklich Schutz bieten. Wie man sich im Wald auch ohne Kompass oder GPS orientiert. Welche Beeren und Pilze zu empfehlen sind; wo und was Sie sammeln, pflücken und essen dürfen. Wo Campen, Feuer machen und Grillen erlaubt sind. Wie Sie Tierspuren richtig lesen - und die besten Zeiten und Plätze, an denen man Wild beobachten kann. Wie Sie sich am natürlichsten gegen Mücken, Waldameisen und Zecken schützen. Was man mit Kindern erlebt und was bei einer Nacht allein im Wald. Wie ein Waldspaziergang im Frühjahr, im Sommer, im Herbst und im Winter zu einer besonderen Erfahrung wird.

Please note that this book was gifted in exchange for an honest review.

I adore nature and the outdoors and the woods have always been my happy place and safe haven. There is something about walking through woodland that clears your mind and lifts your spirits.
This book by the author's own words is "an appetiser" of different aspects of woodland. From first survival techniques to spotting wild animals, woodland conservation and legislation to wildlife, this book touches on it all.
I learnt a great deal and there was only 2 chapters that I didn't click with - and in a 28 chapter book that is pretty good!
Peter Wohlleben is from Germany and so many of the stories and facts were of German woodland, however he does look further afield as well.
The cover is stunning and really caught my eye and set the scene for the book.

I understand this book isn't for everyone and is quote niche however if you enjoy the outdoors, nature and wildlife, it is a lovely book to read. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

Keď som uvidela túto knihu, hneď som vedela, že ju musím prečítať. Autor vo mne opäť prebudil záujem o les a to sa ráta. Táto kniha však nie je opisom života lesa a stromov v ňom, ale skôr praktickým radcom o tom, čo robiť, vidieť a ako sa správať keď sme v lese. Myslím že tu je najväčšie ťažisko i kameň úrazu pre knihu, kým veľa vecí je všeobecne platných pre ktorúkoľvek krajinu, je tu aj veľa vecí, ktoré platia len v Nemecku a tak sú momenty, keď mi robilo problémy naviazať sa na knihu viac. Čo je zaujímavé, sú nápady ako možno stráviť čas v lese nie úplne obvyklým spôsobom a ak sa otvoríme možnosti vnímať ho, koľko nám toho môže odovzdať.

Prvá veta:
Keď sa ma vydavateľstvo Piper spýtalo, či by som nechcel napísať príručku pre návštevníkov lesa bol som nadšený. Milujem les.

Posledná veta:
Želám vám teda veľa zábavy s veľkými i malými zázrakmi, a ak vás táto kniha povzbudí, aby ste sa aj nabudúce vybrali do lesa, splnila svoj účel.

A book with a bit of everything. The forest at night, surviving in a forest, trees in a forest, insect, deer, the introduction of wolves, who owns the forest… it’s all in here and more. A great starting block book!

[Whiskers & Ink ( allie ☁️ ) · Rating 3 out of 5]

I listened to this whilst getting ready in the mornings and thought it was a cute, sweet little read. Overall I think it’s less enthralling than The Hidden Life of Trees, less quietly captivating and more casually anecdotal, but a swift, soothing read nonetheless.

If woods and forests are your safe space, and nature something you are drawn towards, then this is a book for you. Peter Wohlleben collects in Walks in the Wild the miscellaneous knowledge he has gathered as a forester in Germany, packing its pages with all sorts of titbits that any trekker is bound to either nod in empathetic agreement at or appreciate as helpful new knowledge. However, it’s surprisingly not so much a guidebook for wandering through woodlands as it is a bullet point list of “Things Peter Wohlleben Knows Tangentially Related to Forests.”

Walks in the Wild is a strange hodgepodge of curiosities, and a step down from the cohesive, interconnected topic of Hidden Life: the book has chapters on how to spot wolf tracks and how to prevent against mosquitoes or mites, but also chapters on the negative effects of heavy machinery on soil, the rise of the forest funeral industry (in Germany), the politics of forest conservation (again in Germany), what bugs you could potentially make a meal out of in a dire situation, what certain trees taste like, illegal mushroom picking (?! Who’d’ve thunk there was such a thing)... the list goes on. Though there’s a lot of nifty “the more you know” information, it makes for a very fragmented book structure.

Nevertheless, it was a strangely relaxing, no-stress book and I enjoyed it enough as a casual read. It made me miss summers as a kid when I’d go climbing with my family, or leaping into the pine woods near our home with the other neighbourhood kids. Considering that The Hidden Life of Trees made me despair at human folly, Walks in the Wild is (comparatively speaking) much less distressing and a better pick for anyone with an anxious mind like mine lol.

☆ The Hidden Life of Trees

[Valentin Derevlean · Rating 3 out of 5]

nu sunt eu prea mare plimbăreț, însă mi-a plăcut cartea. multe lucruri noi și interesante pentru mine, scriitură lejeră și multe idei despre ce s-ar putea face cu pădurea la noi. bine, dacă nu ar tăia-o unii în disperare. altfel, e un manual de utilizare atât pentru pasionații de călătorie, cât și pentru autorități. probabil că doar primii o vor citi, dar tot nu e rău.

[Jovi Ene · Rating 4 out of 5]

Pădurarul Peter Wohlleben ne învață cum să supraviețuim și cum să ne purtăm cu pădurea. Dar dincolo de a fi pădurar, este un scriitor cu har și un ecologist convins, așa că ne instruiește și despre felul în care se face împădurirea sau despădurirea, despre animalele care trăiesc în pădure și de ce nu trebuie să ne temem de ele, despre căpușe sau ciuperci.
Este un ghid util atât pentru cei care fac drumeții, cât și pentru cei care se declară ecologiști, dar nu știu cum se distruge de fapt pădurea prin plantarea de puieți sau prin acceptarea populațiilor crescânde de lupi sau urși.

[Pfefferoni · Rating 2 out of 5]

Ich bin wirklich gern im Wald. Vielleicht war das schon der Fehler. Das Buch scheint sich eher an völlig naturentfremdete Großstädter zu richten, die im sanftmütig-esoterischen Tonfall behutsam an die Natur herangeführt werden. Begeisterung kam bei mir jedenfalls keine an.

[Lale Svensson · Rating 1 out of 5]

En liten personlig bruksanvisning till ett skogsbesök av en som uppenbarligen har stor erfarenhet. Språket är tyvärr pratigt och stilen snusförnumstig. Trots att jag håller med om att skogsbruket och jägarna har alltför stor makt jämfört med vandrare och skogsnjutare tror jag att boken tappar anhängare på grund av att tonen är ironisk och tendentiös.

[Iulia Marc · Rating 2 out of 5]

Poate aș fi apreciat mai mult cartea la momentul apariției, prin 2018, înainte de a fi citit ,,Viața secretă a copacilor", de același autor, și alte cărți similare. Prin comparație (care e inevitabilă), volumul de față mi se pare dezlânat, împrăștiat, greu de urmărit chiar și pentru mine, om interesat de păduri și drumeții în natură. Informațiile sunt binevenite, însă se suprapun peste cele din ,,Viața secretă a copacilor", iar acolo sunt mult mai bine structurate și livrate.

Am aflat totuși multe despre legislația forestieră a Germaniei, provocările pădurilor de acolo și soluțiile mai mult sau mai puțin ingenioase (vezi pădurile-cimitir), mai mult sau mai puțin funcționale. Totuși, mi-a fost greu să-mi mențin interesul pe parcursul cărții.

Pidän Peterin tavasta kirjoittaa, vaikka se mitä luen ei olisikaan minulle aina uutta ja ihmeellistä. Kirjaan ja sen kuvaamaan metsämaisemaan on helppo uppoutua.

[Pali · Rating 3 out of 5]

Book had for me a few good tips about spending time in the forest, and some details about life of the animals and plants. It had too many references about political-forestry-regulations-in-Germany topics, which were less interesting for me. Author has other 5* books if you want to learn more about forest and find the kick to spend more time in the forest, I would skip this one.

Ďalšia výborná a zaujímavá knižka od Petra Wohllebena. Po jej prečítaní sa na les začnete dívať inak a dozviete sa veľa vecí, ktoré vám pobyt v lese spríjemnia či uľahčia. Vedeli ste napríklad, že komáre vás budú štípať viac, keď sa do prírody vyberiete s čerstvo umytými vlasmi?

Enjoyable if not a bit all over the shop

[Daniel Dumas · Rating 4 out of 5]

If you are an avid forest lover or wish to know more about the story of the woods, their inhabitants, and natural processes, this field guide is the ideal starting point. Wohlleben shares his insights, drawing from his work and familiarity with German forests (great if you are living here, still very interesting and informative if you aren't!) It is also an opinionated account touching on hunting, felling, lumber trade, human-nonhuman relations, and much more. My one criticism would be the rather non-related comment regarding Inuit whale hunting in Greenland. To suggest that they should stop because the hunt occurs using modern implements such as motor-powered boats/weapons and that western foodstuffs have taken away the need to hunt whale is presumptuous and negates the long history of colonialism that led to western foodstuffs and systems being privileged/imposed on Indigenous peoples/territories. Nevertheless, overall, it is a great and thought-provoking read and will get you in an outdoor-exploring mood.

[Gwenaelle Vandendriessche · Rating 3 out of 5]

Interessante weetjes over de bossen in Duitsland. De vertaalster geeft ook sommige opmerkingen over de wetgeving in Nederland. Spijtig dat ze hierbij niet aan de Vlaamse lezers heeft gedacht...

[Keen Reader · Rating 4 out of 5]

From the same author who brought us the highly successful and ground breaking, “The Hidden Life of Trees”. Wohlleben is back with another foray into the forests of the world. He makes a very good point about humans interfering with the feeding of animals and although we think we are doing good by keeping starving animals alive, its normal and necessary for some to starve and when we get too involved we ultimately upset the delicate balance of the ecosystem…the road to hell etc.

Apparently ticks can go up to year without food. He also suggests a fairly novel way of identifying trees, by taste, something I might give a miss. I think I’ll also pass on the “woodland chewing gum” too if that’s OK. To be fair it’s not every day you hear tree branches being compared to a dominatrix whip, the silver birch or should that be…no…better not. Apparently birch trees are sprinters in their youth, but slow down after around thirty and others trees catch up and outgrow them.

Deer have evolved to be wary of two legged predators, so if you wish to greater increase your chances of seeing them you should go on horseback. As horses have four legs and are herbivores and so not threats and the animal assumes you are part of the horse (perhaps not the smartest animal). Unfortunately because these same deer do not perceive fast moving cars as threats this is why they happily graze by roadsides and do not run from oncoming cars. We also learn that in the forest, eagle eyes are not so much use when your view is so often blocked by trees, and the sun is also often shielded by the trees, and so the animals have evolved to have big ears/strong hearing and a sensitive nose as well as lots of fur or hair to keep them warm.

It was interesting when he brought up the wolf issues in Germany and how in spite of their rare and vague threat, the combined factors of historical folklore (child fairytales etc) and mis-information can often result in a border line mass hysteria, a similar situation to the shark problem in Australia, in spite of far more people dying in far more dangerous ways, wild animals can make a quick and easy scapegoat, especially when seeking votes.

Elsewhere he’s good at dispelling many other myths such as moss growing on side of trees to tell you what direction to go in, or using the sun to navigate your way, and why glass bottles don’t actually start forest fires. His explanation for the lack of litter bins in forest was pretty interesting too. He also talks about the astonishing amount of remote cameras installed in German forests, usually for hunting purposes, these apparently amount to over 100'000 in number.

Although this is primarily focused on Germany and Central Europe it does use cases and examples from elsewhere in the world, making this fun and relatable reading for pretty much anyone with even a casual interest in the subject. So all in, much of what he’s saying, that in the forestry environment it really boils down to simple cause and effect. This book sharpened my awareness as well as deepening my appreciation for forests. He is good at making this both enjoyable and accessible and I certainly came away just a bit wiser about the woods and aware of many of the myths to dispel.

Sehr viel Wissenswertes über den Wald

Die Wälder sind sein berufliches Zuhause, und die Arbeit mit Bäumen ist sein Leben. Bei geführten Waldwanderungen gibt der passionierte Förster und Autor Peter Wohlleben sein enormes Wissen über Bäume weiter. Seine Gebrauchsanweisung ist eine ebenso handfeste wie stimmungsvolle Entdeckungstour. Fundiert und unterhaltsam weist er ein in die wichtigsten Laub- und Nadelbaumarten: was sie kennzeichnet, welchen die Zukunft gehört, welche bei Gewitter wirklich Schutz bieten. Wie man sich im Wald auch ohne Kompass oder GPS orientiert. Wo Campen, Feuer machen und Grillen erlaubt sind. Wie Sie Tierspuren richtig lesen – und die besten Zeiten und Plätze, an denen man Wild beobachten kann. Wie Sie sich am natürlichsten gegen Mücken, Waldameisen und Zecken schützen. Was man mit Kindern erlebt und was bei einer Nacht allein im Wald. Wie ein Waldspaziergang im Frühjahr, im Sommer, im Herbst und im Winter zu einer besonderen Erfahrung wird. (Klappentext)

Peter Wohllebens „Gebrauchsanweisung für den Wald“ hat mich begeistert. Heutzutage braucht man für alles eine „Gebrauchsanweisung“ und ich habe viele hilfreiche Tipps und einen unglaublichen Umfang an aufgefrischten, aber auch neuem Wissen mitgenommen. Vorgelesen wird von Stephan Schad, der eine sehr angenehme Vorlesestimme hat und zu den „Förstergeschichten“ einfach hervorragend passt.
Die Gebrauchsanweisung befasst sich unter anderen mit Querfeldeinlaufen, mit Pilze sammeln (darf man und wieviel?), Tiere beobachten, der richtigen Kleidung für den Wald, den verschiedenen Bäumen, Zecken, warum man nicht mit frisch gewaschenen Haaren in den Wald gehen sollte (gewusst? Ich nicht.), Naturschutz, was eigentlich bei Blitz und Donner tut, Überleben im Wald, nachts unterwegs und noch so vielen mehr.
Ich kenne von Wohlleben bereits „Das geheime Leben der Bäume“ und bin ehrlich gesagt begeistert, dass hier im Grunde nichts wiederholt wird, denn das Thema Wald bietet sehr viel, worüber man schreiben kann. Zudem finde ich die Tipps und Ratschläge für Waldspaziergänge auch wirklich sehr ratsam, aber ich finde es auch sehr erheiternd, dass selbst Herr Wohlleben anfangs nicht alles wusste, sondern auch er erst lernen musste. Einiges der angesprochenen Themen gab aber genügend Anreiz zum Nachdenken, u. a. Bestattungsforst, Qualität an Holzmöbeln, aber auch das Überleben im Wald und über die Begegnung mit Wildtieren, wie Wölfen oder Bären.

„Gebrauchsanweisung für den Wald“ ist ein wunderbares informatives und lehrreiches Buch, dass ich nur jeden, der auch nur ein wenig Liebe für die Natur übrig hat, empfehlen kann - egal ob als Hörbuch oder als Buch. Vermutlich macht der nächste Waldspaziergang so noch mehr Spaß.

I boschi sono lì che vi aspettano, pronti per essere esplorati.

Peter Wohlleben si conferma come uno degli autori che intendo seguire. Il suo stile è sia discorsivo che istruttivo, frutto di anni passati sia a prendersi cura del patrimonio boschivo, che alla divulgazione. Proprio da questo desiderio nasce la sua serie di libri The Mysteries of Nature , opera precedente a questo stand alone e guida a come orientarsi nel bosco, figurativamente e letteralmente.
Unica (grossa) pecca: una frase che stona in maniera stridente con quello che l'autore predica nei suoi libri, cioè il rispetto della natura. Dopo aver spiegato perchè la situazione degli animali negli allevamenti sia misera paragonata a quelli selvatici che vengono cacciati (pur non provando troppo simpatia per i cacciatori), manda tutto all'aria a qualche capitolo dalla fine, quando dice che non c'è niente di male nella macellazione degli alberi, così come in quella degli animali per cibarsene. Mi chiedo se sia consapevole dell'impatto dell'industria della carne sull'ambiente che tanto ama, visto che una frase del genere sicuramente non testimonia il suo millantato amore per essa. Non penso di seguire nessun autore che sia vegano o almeno vegetariano, non che ne sia a conoscenza almeno, e un autore non deve necessariamente esserlo (anche se il gli animali, il pianeta e gli esseri umani ringrazierebbero), ma per una figura come la sua, un'affermazione del genere fa sicuramente a pugni... e mette non pochi dubbi sulla missione divulgativa dell'autore.

Bucket list
· leggere altri libri dell'autore, dimenticando lo strafalcione
· essere sepolta in un cimitero di querce, possibilmente l'ultimo elemento della lista
· ordinare un mobile su misura da Holzgespür, il mobilificio che ha “fiuto per il legno”

[Sonali V · Rating 4 out of 5]

A very enlightening book. Good translation, simple and easy. Made me realise again how man has destroyed his surroundings in the name of comfort and progress. Not that we have learned our lesson and will desist. Here in the third world, inspite of knowing better, we are following first world examples of destroying our forests. Not enough people seem to care. That is what is disheartening. After all, people here are very religious, they read or listen to our religious texts which were written in the forests which covered our country and which play integral roles in the stories too,whether it is The Ramayana or The Mahabharata, The Upanishad, The Purana, so shouldn't people respect the remaining forests, jungles and their creatures more. Apparently not. Snippets of amusing information - one can wear any colour in a forest except blue, which the animals can see, survival techniques of which bugs one can eat at a pinch or how to make a bed with branches, how to walk in particular terrains, resin of trees can be used as chewing gum under certain conditions.

Hörbuch - gelesen von Stephan Schad

In gewohnt unterhaltsamer und trotzdem sehr informativer Weise gibt Peter Wohlleben in diesem Buch - welches noch vor seinem Bestseller Das geheime Leben der Bäume erschien - Verhaltens- und Sicherheitstipps für den nächsten Waldbesuch. Außedem praktische Informationen und Anregungen über alles, was so rechts und links des Wegrandes steht, wächst, blüht oder im Verborgenen lebt. Und dies alles nicht im wissenschaftlichen Fachjargon sondern, wie immer bei ihm, leicht verständlich. Das einzige kleine Manko dieses Hörbuchs: man kann nicht mal einfach so darin blättern. Deshalb werde ich mir dieses nützliche Buch nochmals in gedruckter Form bestellen, damit ich es beim nächsten Waldspaziergang mitnehmen und bestimmte Bäume, Pflanzen, Pilze etc. einfach nachschlagen kann. Ich bin großer Fan von Peter Wohlleben und dieses Buch hat sicher dazu beigetragen, dass dies so bleibt.

Die Lesung von Stephan Schad ist angenehm sachlich.

[Lucy · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book was in my library and despite planning to read this author's other books about trees, I read this one first. This one is about woodland and the importance in our lives, but also how you can get more out of your walks in the wood. The author discusses woodland, including natural and plantation woodland, and the life that goes on in it, both animals and humans. He also talks about the rights you have (in Germany) in regards to walking through woodland.

I really liked this. Some of this stuff was relevant to my own country, some wasn't, but I did appreciate an author from somewhere that isn't the US writing about their own laws and issues with woodland and nature. I did appreciate the author's note at the end where you don't have to memorise the book but it's definitely a way to start things off. I also really appreciated the discussion about language and 'how things are done' as a way of life.

4 stars!

[Clark Peeters · Rating 4 out of 5]

Vlot geschreven, laagdrempelig boek dat aanzet tot een frequenter bezoek aan een bos. De korte hoofdstukjes nodigen uit tot een ontspannende lezing, ook voor wie niet gewend is om een boek in de hand te nemen. Dit belet de auteur niet om op adequate wijze de nefaste invloed van de jacht op de ontwikkeling van een gezond bos aan de kaak te stellen net als een lans te breken voor de terugkeer van de wolf en de lynx. Hierdoor voegt de auteur zich bij een steeds groter wordende groep auteurs, meestal ecologen, natuurliefhebbers en systeemdenkers die de gevolgen van de fouten uit het verleden trachten te milderen. Voor wie reeds enige kennis heeft over bosecologie biedt het boekje weinig nieuws, maar dit maakt het niet minder waardevol voor de grote groep mensen die wat meer willen weten over de werking van een gezond bos.

[Tiina · Rating 3 out of 5]

Not my favourite Wohlleben even though this was easy and interesting to read. I felt that the chapters were missing some structure in the way the were put together -sometimes the chapters were tied together, and sometimes things felt more fragmented. Favourite parts were actually the last chapters that felt like finding something in the forest when you'd think it's not worth going there.

I read the Finnish translation and felt that the translation was done well. I don't refer to absence of annoying language or clumsy sentences, but it was a good decision to do some localization to the content. Nature and government of forests is quite different in Germany than in Finland, and this was taken in consideration well - still without overtaking the original book.

[LibrisNaEx · Rating 3 out of 5]

Místy jsem nevěděla jakým směrem chce autor knihu vést. Chvíli psal o stromech, chvíli o zvířatech, pak o myslivectví a lesnictví a přidal i rady jak se chovat v lese a jak v něm přežít, u čehož jen pár informací mi opravdu k něčemu byla - část už jsem znala (a přijde mi že tam byl spousta očividných věcí, které vědí i lidé, kteří v životě nebyli na táboře a část mi přišla zase zbytečně komplikovaná. Navíc témata se střídaly náhodně, neviděla jsem v tom žádný řád ani důvod, proč zrovna tohle pořadí.
Chápu, že tohle všechno je součástí lesa, a to že mě baví hlavně botanika neznamená, že je kniha vyloženě špatná, ale myslím, že by bylo fajn si určit, co má kniha vlastně předávat.

Może powinienem dać jedną gwiazdę więcej?
To nie jest wyczerpujące kompendium. To zbiór uwag, porad, obserwacji. Ładnie napisany, z ekologicznym zacięciem (jak ktoś nie rozumie, dlaczego memy z myśliwymi dokarmiającymi zwierzęta jako prawdziwymi ich miłośnikami są totalnie głupie, musi przeczytać!).
Podkreślę: ładnie napiany. Część książek czytam na głos -- taki domowy układ -- i mam porównanie, czy czyta się je ciężko, jak Piarżysko (z wyjątkiem cytatów z Prusa), czy w przypadku Przewodnika wędrowca.

[Philippa · Rating 3 out of 5]

For the most part an enjoyable read by the author of The Hidden Life of Trees, which I really liked. Walks in the Wild is a collection of essays and musings about life in the forests (of Germany), each on a different topic, although with lots of crossover.
Some essays were more interesting to me than others – the ones with good practical information and insightful observation. Other essays seemed a bit light or self-evident to me - they could be good though for younger readers. For anyone wanting to spend more time in European forests it would be a good read.

Možná už jsem toho od Wohllebena četla moc. Každopádně tento jeho počin mě za srdce nechytnul.
Přestože chápu, že se snaží pokrýt co největší množství témat, na můj vkus mezi nimi skáče příliš chaoticky a s šílenými oslími můstky. Politické záležitosti a téma ochrany přírody mi přišlo opakované několikrát dokola. Souhlasím, že je to problém a je třeba to řešit, ale v knížce mi to docela vadilo.
Jinak je kniha opravdu takový návod - co v lese jíst, na co se dívat, co slyšet...Stručně, jasně, přehledně.

[Ramona Cantaragiu · Rating 2 out of 5]

I really liked The Hidden Life of Trees from Peter Wohlleben so I was quite excited to read this book that I got from a book fair. However, this one was a bit too technical for me and not really that interesting because most of the things he talks about are, of course, related to what is happening in German forests. I was hoping for a somewhat more lyrical guide to a walk in the forest, but instead got an actual manual filled with scary things that actually made me think twice about my nature walks. While I do appreciate the intention, this just wasn't the book for me.
