Hiking

About 600 m further north of here stood at a fork of Grenzweges the Lví buk (Löwenbuche) about which nothing more is known today. It is still on a map from the 30s of the 20th Century drawn map and after her was formerly called the intersecting with the border ways forest path. In the end, only a withered torso remained, which collapsed in the spring of 2010. Today, the name Lví buk (lions beech) is used to describe another tall beech that still stands in front of the border-beating tree about 300 m from the Tobiášova borovice (Tobiá bush).

It is still marked on a map from the 1930s and the forest path that crosses the border path near it was named after it. In the end, all that was left of her was a desiccated torso, which collapsed in the spring of 2010. Today another tall beech tree is called Lví buk (Lion Beech), which stands on the road about 300 m from Tobiášova borovice (Tobias Pine) before the border barrier.
