    Mountain biking

    The tree looks like an admonishing hand. There is also a somewhat scary legend.
    Beautiful forest to hike and cycle. He also has a lot to offer historically.

    Hiking

    The five-fingered linden tree is a tree in the Riesewohld that is around 250 years old and has five trunks, which have grown together in the lower part to resemble a hand.

    250 years ago, a very beautiful girl made eyes at the young men in the village and did not come home one evening. Her father, brothers and servants searched for her and found her lying dead in the moss. A hiker came along the forest path and was frightened when he saw the dead girl. So he ran away and was mistaken for the murderer and caught.
