Hiking
The ‘heart tree’ is a romantic spot for taking photos. The willow was to be felled, but an artist asked if the bare trunk could remain to carve a heart into it – as an original peek into the nature behind it.
When the heart tree started to sprout again, it was decided to let it stand. The tree is very popular with photographers, especially for wedding shoots. The hole above the heart, which was made by a great spotted woodpecker after the artwork, shows that the tree is still important for nature.

It stands inconspicuously by the side of the road - a tree with a sawn heart through its trunk.
