At the Karusselja lime-tree rest stop in Kloostri Forest, visitors can admire a primeval tree and listen to the songs of forest birds. The lime tree was placed under protection in 1959. It is 23 metres in height and has a circumference of 3.1 m at chest level. If you’re visiting the rest stop in autumn, it’s worth bringing a mushroom basket along with you. There are also hazel bushes located along the trail.
