Hearts and letters carved in the trunk of a very old beech tree. Also known as "the witches' path", the Allée des Géants or Allée des Hêtres tortueux is made up of old beech trees over four centuries old. These trees have undergone pleaching, which in the Montagne Bourbonnaise is a traditional technique that consists of braiding the branches of trees together and letting them grow in a chosen direction (e.g. vertically, horizontally or inclined). In this way, it was possible to delimit an alley, a path or even a piece of land... and in some cases, even to obtain a defensive role. These alleys had another advantage: they protected travellers from the sun in summer and from snowdrifts in winter. Saint-Nicolas-des-Biefs, Allier, France
