These trees grow in the forest near Gryfino, Poland. The cause of the curvature is unknown
EDIT : kc0tma from expedition portal actually has a good reasoning behind this : :
The reason for these trees being bendy actually is known. We've got a lot of trees like this around my parts and are locally known as "pistol butts". What happens is you have smaller, younger trees, and they get a heavy snow load on them that bends them over. Then when the snow starts melting part of the tree goes back upwards while the weight of the snow keeps the rest bent over. Its kind of like when you soak a piece of lumber in water and then put it in traction and once it dries it stays bent.
