Very beautiful landscape protection area with bony oak forests and extensive dunes. Many small idyllic paths and several lakes. Wild horses 🐎 and highland cattle 🐂 live relatively freely here. The latter were in the middle of our path 😅we voluntarily avoided them. It's great that the dog is allowed in the entire area. I always notice that this is regulated differently from community to community.
