At first you only see the beautiful bench at the edge of the path. A beaten path indicates that there is more to discover behind it. First you come across a bunker, but a little further behind there is another, very large one that you can walk around. There is no sign indicating this from the path, unlike other bunkers. So you have to know it to find the two bunkers.
