If you live in Jena, you must have been to the Landgrave! That's exactly what we'll do with you: together we'll hike through the city's surroundings and enjoy the view over Jena.
We will be walking for about 2 hours - the perfect opportunity to meet new people and have good conversations in a relaxed environment, far away from university and time table stress ;-). You don't need any special hiking experience, but there will be a longer ascent at the beginning and some stairs to walk. Be sure to take something to drink with you and remember to wear sturdy shoes.
If the weather forecast is bad, we will inform you via Telegram whether the hike will take place.
