Speculation Behind Nature’s Unnatural Formation: The Crooked Forest

Heavy snowfall is thought to be another reason. When the saplings were planted, heavy snowfall made the trees deformed and curved.

Another theory goes that the farmers curved the trees when they were just saplings to curve out furniture and cartwheel rims.

During World War II, the German tanks are believed to have run over these trees and made them deformed the way they are now.

Some of the other popular theories are alien invasion, strong winds, and genetic mutation.
