The woodland is characterized by its dense canopy of majestic trees, including oak, beech, and birch, which provide a haven for various species of birds, mammals, and insects. The forest floor is adorned with an array of wildflowers, creating a vibrant and colorful tapestry.

Tranquil walking trails wind through the woods, allowing visitors to explore the area at their leisure.
