    A nice route - always something to see left and right of the path.

        Beautiful path and good to walk. The basalt wall on the way is very interesting and the black nest accompanies us on the other side of the way. Nice shade in the summer and fresh air through the nests and the trees. Rest areas are available.

                The easy path makes you feel like you are in the middle of untouched nature. But be careful: in autumn there may be slippery stones hidden under the leaves here and there.
