Dozens of cairns decorate the roadside at this point. Put one up yourself or just take a nice photo. ;)

You often see places where stones are stacked.
This is often the case here.
The builders have no malicious intent.
However, stacking such stone towers is problematic for flora and fauna, as stones lying on the ground are an important habitat for many animals.
If the stones are stacked, the soil dries out faster where they were previously, and animals are deprived of shelter.
Therefore, we ask that you do not create such stone stacks, even if they look pretty, but rather dismantle existing ones and simply let nature be.
These stone towers here have already been dismantled.
