Arboretum Freiburg-Günterstal, Arboretum in Günterstal district, Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany.

The Arboretum Freiburg-Günterstal extends across 100 hectares of land, containing 1,300 tree and shrub species from 60 countries across five continents.

The first Douglas fir plantations were established in 1896, followed by extensive plantings of foreign trees throughout the Freiburg city forest from 1901 to 1911.

The arboretum serves as an educational center where visitors can learn about global tree species through labeled specimens and guided botanical tours.

Two marked circular paths, each spanning 2 kilometers, start near the Wonnhalde tram stop and guide visitors through the diverse tree collections.

The arboretum houses the Waldtraut vom Mühlenwald, which stands at 66.58 meters and holds the title of Germany's tallest tree.
