    Hiking

    One of the biggest attractions in the Lily Valley is the forest of sequoia trees (Sequoiadendron giganteum).
    Sequoia trees are native to California on the western slopes of the Sierra Nevada, where they can be up to 3,000 years old and reach heights of 100 meters.

    The seeds for the lily valley sequoia trees come directly from California.

    They were sown in the Stuttgart pheasant garden in 1956. Four years later they were planted out on an area of 1.2 hectares in Liliental and have grown splendidly ever since.

    Already in 1992 the trees were on average 22 meters high.

    Hiking

    The trees are still relatively young. They were planted when they were 4 years old in 1960. But very impressive.
