The fir bush , also called eight fir trees , in St. Martin am Tennengebirge in Lammertal , Land Salzburg is the very rare appearance of a multi-stemmed fir .
Location and landscape
The fir tree is located on the southern roof of the Tennengebirge , not far from Lungötz , on the Moosriedel on the northern slope of the Korein , a southern foothill of the mountain range, towards the uppermost Lammertal. It stands in the headwaters of the Köppenreitbach not far from the Haranger wetland .
The Moos feeder forest path (hiking trail 89 / 89a) leads past a few meters to the east, this path branches off from the Harreith - Seireralm - Moosgut - Lammertal forest road . The tree itself is in the middle of the forest.
The tree
Conifers are usually not able to form root saplings , but the silver fir can in exceptional cases. This tree branches into 8 trunks in the root complex. The tree is likely to be around 180 years old; it got its name because it looked like a shrub when it was younger . In his youth he was injured in the terminal drive by snow breakage or bitten by grazing cattle or game. Today all 8 trunks have grown into 30 meter high, mighty individual trees, which together make up about 35–40 cubic meters of wood .
Conservation and development
The tree was designated as a natural monument in 2005 ( GNG 16 , nominally area object with 25 m²; the designation Tannenstrauch on GP 565/7 refers to the property of deposit number 565/7 of the cadastral community Lammerthal ). The purpose of the protection is "special character of the site, special aesthetic effect, special local historical-cultural significance".
The approximately 8 km long trekking path from St. Martin connects the sycamore maple on the Seireralm (also a protected natural formation), the yew tree in the Schoberberg district , the Haranger-Moos , the fir tree and the Lammertal primeval forest at the Spießalm.
