11 Magical Tree Tunnels You Should Definitely Take A Walk Through

There’s something magical about being able to walk underneath a lush canopy of trees while surrounded by nature.

It’s a serene and beautiful experience and so much better than strolling along other types of roads where, instead of being shaded by trees,shadows are only cast by tall buildings.

Here’s a fantastic collection of photos of some of the most astounding tree tunnels in the world.
Some are formed naturally, others created by humans,but all are absolutely gorgeous,and it would be incredible to walk beneath any of them.

1. The Dark Hedges in Northern Ireland
This beautiful avenue of beech trees was planted in the 18th century by the Stuart family, who wanted to create a magnificent landscape that would impress visitors as they approached their home. The trees still remain there today, and it’s a popular spot for tourist, photographers, and painters.

Apparently, the road is also haunted by the “Grey Lady”, who appears at dusk amongst the trees.

2. Street in Bonn, Germany
Each spring, beautiful flowers bloom on this street in Bonn. The blossoms create an amazing pink canopy that only lasts about 2-3 weeks. Eventually the petals fall off the trees and onto the ground, almost like delicate pale pink snow.

3. Wisteria Flower Tunnel, Japan
In the city of Kitakyushu Japan is the Kawachi Fuji Garden, which is home to around 150 Wisteria flowering plants.
One of the highlights of the private garden is the gorgeous purple tunnel of Wisteria flowers. The best time to visit is April to mid-May, when the flowers are in full bloom.You can walk beneath the lovely hanging multi-colored blossoms for a truly surreal experience.

4. Oak Alley along the Mississippi River outside New Orleans, Louisiana
Oak Alley is a historic plantation located outside of New Orleans, Louisiana. It’s named after one if its most popular features, the double rows of live oaks on the property. The tree lined road is about 800 feet long, and it’s absolutely spectacular to walk along its canopied path.Readmore
