The name of this attraction is not accidental. We chose this section thinking that it might be attractive and we were right, because it is very attractive but not for cyclists, unless for lovers of extreme riding. To be honest, we had to walk our bikes for a significant part of this section. The path is very narrow and in some places overgrown with dense vegetation, but it is still possible to walk through it. The worst thing is that there are a lot of protruding stones of various sizes and protruding roots on the route, which make pedaling difficult and it is basically impossible to avoid them. Moreover, the path also runs along a slope and a moment of inattention may lead to a nasty fall. Therefore, I do not recommend this section for cyclists, but definitely for walkers. These difficulties are not visible in the photos (I was concentrating on avoiding obstacles), and it would be a pity if my warnings were confirmed. If someone doesn't believe me, try driving there and describe your feelings.

True wilderness. It's a beautiful place, but it's probably worth booking more time than usual for the trip. From what we have learned, entry to this part of the park is free.
