Concrete cycle path along the sand quarry

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Concrete cycle path along sand extraction. Beautiful cycle path along the sand extraction site, which may become a very beautiful piece of nature in the future (it is already becoming beautiful; May 2021). Advantage of this path: no car around.
