Text replacement - "Macolline_Park" to "Macolline_Forest"
Stilt roots are produced by the trunk or branches and develop in the open air before penetrating the ground. This adaptation allows a better base and elevation above the water (competition for space). In the undergrowth, some trees grow by extending their roots towards the brightest areas (competition for light).

Foothill roots are vertically flattened root expansions, glued to the trunk. Depending on the size and age of the tree, the buttresses can be numerous, reach several meters high and branch out. They allow better fixation and resistance to wind.
The forest is open to visitors every day. An information centre and various locally handcrafted souvenirs are for sale at the entrance.
