Tips

September 4, 2021

Hiking

Very impressive, even if the trunk is now closed by a fence so that the roots are protected. Can be nicely combined with the "Alte Tannen" premium trail from Freudenstadt. Shortly before the grandfather fir, what a 300-year-old tree has already experienced is documented on a tree disc.

Hiking

Great view from the Bärbank on the "grandfather fir". How powerful this tree actually is can only really be seen when you stand directly in front of it.

Hiking

For a fir tree really strong diameter at chest height 1.65 m. You do not see anything like that in the forest every day. The way is worth it.
