This is the Hell Canyon. Benches invite you to take a break before entering the gorge. However, the so-called gorge is not that strenuous - but definitely beautiful and worthwhile.

From here you are directly in the plain of hell. You have the option of walking in the direction of the heath or on two beautiful paths through the gorge.
