The final hike of the semester will take place in the Schönbuch forest, covering about 15 km. We'll start by hiking to Hohenentringen Castle for a break and to enjoy the surrounding views.
From there, we'll head into the lesser-known areas of the Schönbuch, discovering hidden treasures like the Giant Sequoia tree and a royal hunting lodge, perfect for a picnic or possibly a bonfire. 
We'll also have the chance to observe the rich wildlife of the northern Schönbuch, including deer, goats, and perhaps even wild boars.
