Trees that were knocked down and preserved by a prehistoric volcanic eruption silicified over the course of millions of years. The remains of the trees petrified in this way can be admired on a meadow here today.

In the park-like area in Martis, the remains of trees that petrified around 250 million years ago are scattered across a large meadow. On some you can even see the annual rings. There are also some shaded picnic areas. A nice, quiet and not overcrowded place.
