So, just a small article about the subject of trees and leaves, which seemed to us as if just gone down, some time ago already that we had received some pictures about the visit on the Treetop path on Hainich from Detlef. Well, let's consider it as a reminder and a pleasure to re-growing in spring.

Everything is different here, high up in the green of the leaves, according to our friend's statement. The sound of the bird's voice seems more powerful, the air and the light purer. The leaves of the trees are much softer and fresher, the sky much closer.

Carefully, the wooden path reveals the mystery of the otherwise unreachable tree giants for most people.
