If you wonder how the big tree is grown in such an unusual way you have to know that it is a very old one.
Since the Middle Ages the forest was used to give firewood to the people. In march they cut the branches of the trees two meters above the ground and let them grow again. (The two meters were important because of the cattles and sheep who would eat the fresh green twigs if they can get them.) The german word for this trees is "Kopfbuche" and means Headed Beech because of the thick bark.
I love to walk through this forest with its fairytale like trees.

In the place you can see here one minute after I took this picture a grandma and a grandpa with their grandchildren came along. Grandma and grandpa hide out behind the big tree and played with the kids. That made me smile.

One thing that I saw only on the computer was the little heart in the bark of the other tree. I´m not sure you can see it in small ipernity version.

Have a good week my friends and find some space to relax!
