Known as the "cypress of the north", juniper was valued and sanctified as a magical plant in the past. According to legend, the evergreen plants conceal the entrances to the dwarves' caves, so branches were nailed over the doors to ward off witches.

If necessary, this tour can be shortened a bit – our two dogs were able to …
