The little bunny probably used to serve as a training room for prospective foresters because the district forester Heller taught here.

It is "only" a 1.5 km climb from the reservoir to the giant sequoias, but it is worth visiting the American guests. It will be quite a while before these trees, planted around 1900, reach the biblical age of their American relatives.
