Why wander into the distance when the good is so close. This saying proves true once again on this route. Close to the city and yet far away from the busy streets of the agglomeration. The variety between gentle and crisp climbs as well as flowing and rapid descents is what makes it so special. Because most of the time you only hear the crunching of the tires on the gravel paths.

Hiking

Two benches allow you to take a rest in the shade of the trees and enjoy the view of the lake.
