Hiking

All "Trees of the Year" since 1989 have found their place on this path, including solid and weatherproof signage. The newest specimen is a whitebeam, the Tree of the Year 2024. Due to the drought of recent years, unfortunately not all trees survived and some had to be replaced in 2022, which explains the small size of the young trees in some places. The path climbs continuously until we reach the fire watchtower on the Galgenberg.

Hiking

In the forest we can admire at the roadside a very beautiful parade of all "trees of the year" since 1989. By the way: Spruce was proclaimed the tree of the year 2017, the sweet chestnut in 2018, the flutter elm in 2019. 🌲 🌳

A nice idea and if you personally travel through time, it's also very entertaining.
Sometimes difficult to read vertically!
