Troll Forest

Troll Forest

The second largest forest in Denmark, Rold Forest, on the northern part of the Jutland peninsula contains parts of old beech forest, otherwise scarce in Denmark. In one of these called the Troll Forest, the trees are very gnarly with branches spreading out from the ground, nothing like the trees in most beech forests. Their strange shapes most likely result from a combination of animal browsing, fungi, frost and wind.
