    Hiking

    You have to visit this corner, even if it is not directly on the promenade

    Hiking

    There are larger caves, but this one is absolutely worth seeing. And you should crawl through it once. That's fun!!! In general, you think you know the area and then you keep seeing beautiful new rock formations. If you really inspected every rock, every crevice or cave intensively, you would be on the road for days.

    Hiking

    Is a little off the path in the forest. But a detour is worthwhile. There is also climbing here.
