"I hope Poland remains a eco-beautifull country."
Dre from Belgium
The Bialowieza Forest is the biggest tree(of monumental sizes)
cluster in Europe. Among the trees growing there the biggest sizes
are reached by oaks and this site is dedicated to them. The Bialowieza
Oaks impress with soaring shape, habit diversity, majesty & age. The oldest
ones sprouted in the times of Władysław Jagiełło, and maybe even of Kazimierz
Wielki. They are parts of the Bialowieza Forest - world-class humankind
heritage - and that's why it is worth documenting their lasting. We are
custodians of this nature sanctuary and we should do everything we can to
keep it for future generations. Satisfying is the fact that in 200-300,
maybe even 400 years, when we are long gone, some of these oaks will keep
on growing, breaking next records of height & trunk perimeter. Can the
Bialowieza Oaks be even more powerful? 20 years of adventure with the
Bialowieza wild forest and its trees let me state that yes, they can be.
It depends on us whether we let them do it! Currently on this site there
are about 650 oaks described(3000 photos & over 220 films)
