Tree Disc Tour in Herdern: Urban Ecology, Biodiversity and a Unique Freiburg Experience
This tree disc tour takes place on Monday, June 29, 2026, through Herdern and combines city tour, environmental education, and local history into a vibrant discovery experience. In the action month of Engaged June, participants will discover special tree sponsorships, learn more about wild bees, celandine, and the care of tree discs, and experience Freiburg from its green, engaged side.
Herdern as a Stage for Urban Nature
Herdern shows Freiburg from a quiet, elegant side: a district with green oases, established neighborhoods, and plenty of space for urban ecology. The tour focuses on the small places by the roadside that are often overlooked in everyday life and makes visible how real habitats for insects and plants emerge from tree sponsorships.
With Experts on the Way
The tour is accompanied by creative experts from the Freiburg pack. The focus is on practical knowledge, exchange, and awareness of the biodiversity right at one's doorstep. This creates a cultural enrichment that connects understanding of nature with urban consciousness.
Wild Bees, Flowers, and Tree Discs
The tour draws attention to the diversity around city trees: flowering plants, small care measures, and the importance of nature-friendly tree discs for wild bees and other pollinators. This connection between urban space and ecological responsibility makes the tour particularly exciting for nature lovers, engaged individuals, and visitors to Freiburg.
Meeting Point and Participation
The meeting point is the main entrance of the Katharinenstift at Leopoldring 13. The event takes place from 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM, and registration is required. Participation is free, and the number of places is limited. Thus, the tour is ideal for anyone who wishes to experience Freiburg in a calm, knowledgeable, and practical way.
Conclusion
The tree disc tour in Herdern combines nature experience, urban history, and voluntary engagement into a special evening walk. Those who want to rediscover Freiburg away from classic tourist attractions and learn more about biodiversity in the urban district should secure this date and register early.
