Giant Sequoia Forest Liliental

Highlight • Forest

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.

Birch Grove

Highlight • Forest

Not only the birch plantation - but also some other tree species are laid out here. The aim is to find out which trees should be accelerated in the context of climate change.

Liliental Arboretum

Highlight • Forest

Extensive area, partly more of a park landscape. Hundreds of tree and shrub species collected from different parts of the world. Worth seeing, especially in spring from the beginning of May to the end of June when countless orchids are blooming in places (e.g. in the birch forest)!
