    Tips

    Hiking

    Sturdy shoes and long trousers are strongly recommended: In May, the vegetation was sometimes so dense that the path was rarely clearly visible.

    Hiking

    Nicely overgrown path. However, a nice challenge to walk. I recommend walking it from bottom to top with good mountain hiking boots.
    1 downside: there was a lot of plastic waste in the stream. Should not be possible in a protected nature reserve.
