Hiking

"Hain" is an old name for a wooded piece of land, often in Celtic / Germanic times also with a special tree - for example an oak - which, according to the belief of the time, sanctified this place and made the grove a place of worship.

Hiking

Here you can find oak trees that are over 400 years old, as was discovered by examining oak tree trunks that had fallen here.
Planted a long time ago to have enough fodder for fattening pigs, the oak grove now forms a beautiful avenue.
