A beautiful old beech tree that is right on the edge of the path to the bathing bay.
And please don't scratch any initials in the bark. I won't write my name on your forehead either!

The Forest Elephant

Watch out for the elephant's trunk. He will welcome you. The rest of this huge animal seems to be under water in the Hunte ;-)
