The Mühlhausen city forest with its extensive and convenient network of paths is a popular destination for hiking and recreation. The "Weißes Haus" hiking parking lot is an ideal starting point. The sequoia trees, which can be found in various places in the city forest, are particularly worth seeing. In North America, sequoia trees reach a height of 120 meters. In 1884, the municipal chief forester E. Brehme created a planting garden with sequoias and other foreign trees on Torfgrubenweg.
