The Grounds

There is a courtyard near the back entrance of the castle and not far away from the greenhouses, where students can sit on the marble benches and chat or do homework between classes.

The lake is often a nice place to relax by after classes or exams. Some students go swimming but most prefer to sit along the bank. Many creatures call the dark waters home including the Giant Squid.

Quidditch is a big deal at Hogwarts. The entire student body come out to watch their houses compete for the Quidditch cup which is awarded at the end of each school term.

A very violent tree planted alone in the middle of the grounds. The tree will attack anyone who comes within reach of it's branches.

The forbidden forest is as the name suggests, forbidden to all students. Any students caught inside the forest without a teacher will be punished. There are many dangerous creatures that live within the forest.

Herbology is normally taught here. There are around three or four green houses here. Which have various plants that the students will learn how to care for.
