Rond de Tronçais with picnic table in Forêt de Tronçais - Allier. From the end of the 19th century, forest crossroads or "ronds" became part of the history of the Forêt de Tronçais. They were named after local toponyms, but also to pay tribute to the foresters who had left their mark on its history. And in those days, to pay tribute to someone, trees were planted. This is how the foresters created the "ronds", planting different species of conifers around their edges to differentiate them from the rest of the forest. The Tronçais forest is considered to be one of the most beautiful oak forests in Europe. It was awarded the Forêt d'Exception label in 2018. This label is a guarantee of excellence. France

Close-up of the regenerating bark of a Giant Sequoia in the Forêt de Tronçais - Allier. The Giant Sequoia owes its exceptional longevity to its great size and its ability to regenerate, producing new bark every year. This bark makes it remarkably resistant to fire. A giant sequoia set on fire can take weeks to burn down. The tree can also heal deep wounds by reconstituting its bark. Its high tannin content protects it from insects and fungi. The Tronçais forest is considered one of the most beautiful oak forests in Europe. It was awarded the Forêt d'Exception label in 2018. This label is a guarantee of excellence. France
