The guided visit will be in English (either originally or via translation from German).

The visit's official meeting point is in the parking lot of the Gasthauses Holzschlägermatte (Schauinslandstraße 359, 79100 Freiburg), at 15:00. The restaurant is open from 12:00 noon on, with their menu available here. 

To get to the restaurant, is a 1.5-2 hour walk from the Schauinslandbahn-Talstation (Bohrerstraße 11, 79289 Horben) with roughly 500m of elevation change. Anyone who wants to walk with Rachel should be ready to leave from the Talstation at 12:30, or from the tramstop at the Technische Fakultaet at 11:15. To get to the Talstation, one takes Tram 2 (Guenterstal) from Hbf or Bertoldsbrunnen to Freiburg Dorfstrasse, then changes to bus 21 (Horben ueber Schauinslandbahn). One should expect the trip from the Technische Fakultaet to the Talstation to take roughly an hour. Alternatively, students can self-arrange to travel by bike or car!

Please be sure to pack for summer temperatures, with water, snacks, comfortable shoes, sun-protection, and a rain jacket!
