Fossiele bomen

Description

De eiken die hier liggen werden tijdens het delven van grind gevonden. Wellicht groeiden deze bomen zo'n 2000 jaar geleden meer stroomopwaarts. Ze maakten deel uit van een oerbos langs de oevers van de Maas. De hogere delen van de oevers overstroomden minder vaak waardoor de bossen er zich konden ontwikkelen tot hardhoutooibossen met imposante eikenbomen. Door de kracht van het water verlegde de rivier meermaals haar bedding en verzwolg zo delen van het bos. De bomen werden meegesleurd in de stroom en spoelden aan op de oevers, waar ze bedolven werden onder grind, zand en leem. Zo bleven ze al die jaren bewaard.
