The original Beckahans oak tree unfortunately had to be felled due to a wood-boring beetle infestation. A new tree has already been planted a few meters away. The new rest area furniture will be installed at the new tree later this year.

The cypress lake is part of the English landscape park in the castle park. Originally circular, it has silted up and grown over in many places over the years. In the middle of the cypress lake, the bald cypress tree, which was probably planted by Count Alexander, has still been preserved today. Bald cypress trees actually come from southeastern North America and can grow up to 35 meters tall. This bald cypress is estimated to be around 100 years old. This is still a very young age for the tree, as bald cypresses can live up to 1000 years. The bald cypress in the castle park is now around 23 meters high and has a trunk circumference of around 2 meters. In the cold season the tree does not make a good impression. Bald cypresses not only shed their needle leaves in autumn, but also entire branches. However, when the tree sprouts bluish-green young shoots from June onwards, it is a real show. https://mit-mama-nach.de/traumrunde-schwanberg/

The inner part of the park is designed in a strictly formal manner. A large avenue of linden trees runs through the entire length of the park as a central axis. A walk along the avenue is always an experience: In spring, walk under the delicate green of the awakening linden trees, in summer, enjoy the shady coolness under the roof of the avenue, in autumn, walk on the golden carpet of linden leaves and in winter, enjoy the bizarre crown shapes of the avenue trees. https://www.geistliches-zentrum-schwanberg.de/erleben/schlosspark/rundgang-schlosspark/

A great place with a beautiful view of the surrounding area. Excellent for a break on the hike 👍

The Neptune Fountain in Schönbrunn Palace Park was built between 1778 and 1780 as part of the redesign of the complex under Empress Maria Theresa. The fountain is a good hundred meters long, almost fifty meters wide and, without figures, a little over seven meters high. The park is beautifully laid out and you can discover a lot

The lake belongs to the large area of the 🏰garten, which was laid out in 1921. It was probably an element of the cypress lake, landscape garden. The cypress comes from the original North America, occurs in swamps (becomes up to 35 m high; up to 700 years old). The bald cypress is around 100 years old, around 23 m high and around 2 m in circumference, and budding begins very late in June. The needles are initially fresh green, later they darken significantly. The needles are thrown off at the end of October and then have a fox-red or dark brown autumn color. The "knee or breath roots" are typical. A hiking trail leads around the cypress lake.
