    Hiking

    Very old and unusually grown spruce (colloquially also called Prussian tree), not far from the Ruisseau de Bayehon.

    Hiking

    From about 1850 onwards, the Prussians started planting spruces en masse at higher altitudes (from 400-450 metres). This one immediately catches your eye if you're new to the area and never heard of it before. A beautiful specimen that dominates the environment with its impressive and somewhat capricious shapes. Particularly photogenic and impressive.

    Hiking

    A fantastic tree, the branches of which protrude "chandelier-shaped" and thickly.
