Yew trees can get quite old - around 250 years and more. Yew trees often appear dark and mysterious. The yew was once considered a tree of mourning. Yew branches were said to ward off evil spells and demons.

Here you can walk the long loop to the left and take the shortcut to the right!

There are a few different options that you can explore here.

We also walked to Zellsee, along the lake there and later arrived back up at the yew forest.
