    Hiking

    The "Melchior" oak tree is a 390-year-old English oak measuring 680 cm in trunk circumference and 28 meters in height. Named after Melchior Hatzfeldt, the first owner of Żmigród lands who received the estate in 1641, this monumental tree was granted protected status as a natural monument on June 26, 2010.

    The oak's lower branches have been surgically removed, creating distinctive circular scars that have healed over time and now resemble the face of a cow or bull when viewed from a distance.
