An oak over 1,000 years ... what it could tell. How long it will stand - certainly less than 200 years - so my assessment

Hiking

Over 1000 years is a long time. It's a shame that the tree can't tell us its story.

The 1000-year-old giant oak tree in Borlinghausen is very impressive. The size of the tree is already large and if you consider all the times it has lived through...
Now the veteran is in his old age.
