Tips
Paths were not built in the Middle Ages, but arose by themselves through the carts, animals and people who used the path. If the path could no longer be used, a new path usually formed parallel to it. The king was tired of it and had his own paths laid out to secure the connection between his castles. As a royal route, these were even attached to inclines or in swamp areas by stones. These royal roads were not allowed to be used by others. On this forest path you can still find sections with this old stone pavement. They are also identified by signs.
