    Tips

    Hiking

    First, a narrow path with a few steps and a few roots leads to the first obstacle: climbing over the wooden beams.
    This section requires a high level of surefootedness. Please do not take this path in heavy rain or snow.
    It's best to "only" go up and not necessarily down this section.
    After the wooden beams, you walk through a section secured by wooden fences.
    The last section with the stone steps has a securely anchored metal railing.
