Hiking

Great ascents, but also strenuous.

Hiking

I didn't think it was particularly beautiful. But it was also the end of a very strenuous tour with an involuntary 4km dangling. Maybe I was no longer completely receptive. The gorges themselves are still quite ok, but a lot of the trees were cut down on the access roads, i.e. on the house steps and on the Little Zschand, and that was all there was to it. Wasn't a nice atmosphere. Hardly any shade!
