Directly behind the Klipstein Grave stands the remains of what must have once been a magnificent oak tree, but it's not dead and still bears a few leaves. The crown, consisting of two sturdy branches, fell victim to Storm Skyril. It's said to be just over 400 years old, and its circumference is about 7 meters.

I could only give the exact location in a different location—so please also look for the Klipstein Grave. :)
