    Tips

    I didn't find any information about this place anywhere. The fact is, it is a very old staircase with a small weatherproof boofe in a ravine. The railing for security is also 100 years old. It is unclear whether this is an old climb from the north-west side. It's clear that this place was once there for something.

      Steep uphill and yet mysterious

        Since you are not allowed to leave the paths here, you wouldn't normally reach this spot, except perhaps as a climbing approach.
