    Tips

    September 3, 2023

    If you would like to stretch your legs a little after the strenuous journey to Wakan (all-wheel drive vehicle and strong nerves required), this short tour is ideal (approx. 20 to 30 minutes). The hiking route is very well developed (stairs and paved and marked with color markings), near the village the path is illuminated and the lamps become brighter as you approach (motion detector). Therefore the route is still easy to walk in the evening. This is much more pleasant in hot weather than in blazing sunshine. At the end of the developed path there is a comfortable rest area with covered benches and a toilet. Along the way there are many green gardens and irrigation systems for the eye and the camera. The views of the valley are also worth seeing.

      Around 700 stairs can be climbed here to a great viewing point.
