You'll think about your feet getting on, and again once or twice on the way up.

Not a safety inspection. Check the tree yourself before you trust it.

A cute little hornbeam. It does not have too much going on, but the climb up to the first branch is a little fun. It's very nice because if you go up that branch, you are not above the cycling road, but you are going to the back -- this makes you very close to a giant poplar tree! At about 5 m in height, it puts you in a very close position to watch the huge giant poplar next to you up close, which is quite rare to be able to do. You can also move one of the branches and give the other poplar a little bit of a back scratch :)
