    Hiking

    Probably the oldest tree in Germany.
    It is assumed that both of the side trees still standing today grew from a common tree in the middle.

    It is possibly the oldest tree in Germany, but unfortunately only possibly. Nevertheless, when nothing is going on here, it is a nice place to relax while you can philosophize about what the yew has probably seen.

    Nice view, also in the direction of the "Allgäu 3-Zinnen" 😉
