    Hiking

    La Sentinelle is a magnificent oak that stands as guardian of the Forest of Tronçais, one of the most beautiful forests in France. It is the largest and probably one of the oldest oaks in the forest, with a circumference of 6.5 meters and a height of 28 meters. Its age is estimated at more than 500 years. It marks a border in the forest, when planted it was the border of the royal forest.
