A walk through Weisstannen leads to an impressive lime tree with almost 2 meters in diameter. It offers a seating area and is a popular place of peace and strength in the original mountain world of the Weisstannen Valley.

A walk through Weisstannen is not only recommended on account of the interesting wooden houses. On the right hand side you soon come to a mighty lime tree with a diameter of almost 2 metres. The opportunities to sit all around indicate that it is a popular place to rest a while. The lime tree is, in energy terms, indeed a wonderful "place of power". You can lean with your back against the tree and tank up on energy, either at the beginning or end of a hike through the natural countryside of the Weisstannental (Weisstannen valley).
