Allenspacher Hoflinde

The Allenspacher Hoflinde stands 25 meters tall with a trunk circumference of 8.95 meters, making it the largest tree in Tuttlingen district.

Planted around 1450, this summer lime tree has undergone protective measures including concrete supports and metal covers to preserve its declining horizontal trunk.

The tree serves as a central point at the Allenspacher farm, which functions as a youth hostel and camping site for the Protestant Youth Association.

Visitors can access the tree through hiking trails connecting Grauentalquelle and Schäferquelle, with routes ranging from 5 to 27 kilometers in length.

The tree features two main trunks, with one maintaining vertical growth while the other extends almost horizontally, requiring structural support systems.
