    Tips

    October 8, 2021

    After a sheer endless single trail looping uphill, the descent back to the start of the tour begins here. Initially through the forest, nothing special, but then rocky and finally again over the black volcanic rock. In places very steep with heels. On the whole, however, all passages are clearly visible and a line choice is quite possible.

      Black volcanic rock??? No, it is marl, therefore sedimentary, called here roubines (or robine, or elephant skin, or black earth)
