Tips from the Community
Komoot has once again badly distorted my title and ignored the intended meaning. And with a grammatical error, too! It should read: "Bridge - Path down to the old oak tree."

The ancient oak tree down in the meadow is unfortunately difficult to reach, requiring extensive and confusing detours. Once you reach the bridge, things get tricky. You could take the stone steps (front right if you're coming from Warta), although there's a stupid sign there. It prohibits the use of the good steps, supposedly because only authorized persons are allowed to enter the railway grounds!

A magnificent, ancient tree, beautifully standing alone. It stands out beautifully in the meadow. A charming wetland is in the background. Another large branch has broken off. This oak is quite badly damaged, but appears to be fully alive. Unfortunately, it's difficult to reach from the bridge. On the bike path, it's hard to know where to turn off to get there safely.

This natural monument has been an eye-catcher for years. Get off the bike at the top of the bridge and then go down the stairs, under the underpass and a small trail leads to the oak. All branches are still green and reach down to the ground.

From the "Spur der Steine" cycle path you have a very good view of the natural monument.

Small improvement from the local smart ass: The larch is in the Boitzenburger Land, in the Uckermark, Brandenburg. It is located on the longest larch avenue in Europe. Tree heights over 30m. Unfortunately, there is predominantly a monetary interest here, so that the stock is steadily dwindling.
