Everyone knows about tree disks...but here the biography in the display case of the 133-year-old ash tree is extremely interesting, because the annual rings and historical dates document everything that happened in the life of this tree in our world.

Hiking

The hiking trail "Hohes Elbufer" (W30) also runs along here, which I can highly recommend at this point. All information about the hiking trail can be found under the following link: wanderjugend.de/deutsche-wanderjugend/jugendwanderwege/die-jugendwanderwege/norddeutschland/hohes-elbufer (as of May 1, 2024).
