On Breite live over 500 trees aged between 200 and 800 years. Each is a microcosm which provides food and shelter for dozens of other species of animals and plants and their special landscape attracts tourists from all over the world. Here one can find 639 trees. But oaks are not only treasure on the natural plateau. In total 115 species of vertebrates, most protected by law, and dozens of other species have been identified here.
