Hike with Peter Wohlleben

Explore the wonders of the forest with forester and lecturer Peter Wohlleben. There's a lot to discover in the beautiful woodlands surrounding the Forest Academy - if you know where to look. Peter will show you just that. You'll discover how trees make rain and that they even have a kind of shampoo. In the old beech forests, you'll learn how they prepare for the warmer climate with the help of fungi and bacteria, and how you can tell they're learning. From bacteria to fungi, insects and larger animals to trees: everything is interconnected and forms a large organism that is much more than the sum of its species. And this organism is strong! Find out why Peter is so optimistic that our green lungs can survive - if we let them do it themselves.

On this five-hour hike, you'll wander through the beautiful forests around Wershofen in a small group with Germany's most famous forester, Peter. Peter will show you amazing details about the forest. You'll cook and eat together in nature, providing an unforgettable day.
