    It is spectacular how the root system has been exposed here by erosion.

    Just look, don't touch (walk), even if it invites you to climb.

    Hiking

    Located in the southern Aller glacial valley ( Fahler Heide or Gifhorner Schweiz nature reserve ), the roots (witch trees) are just behind the heath car park.

    Beautifully exposed roots. With a sign that is actually understandable for all generations: "Please do not play with them to destroy them."

    It's worth a stop. The roots are fascinating. There is a shelter and benches. It's definitely worth it.

    Several circular trails and hiking routes cross right next to it (Hermann-Löns-Weg, nature trail, etc.)
