Very easy hike, with little ascent. Ideal for a relaxed walk that can be extended at any time.
Suitable for ending a working day with some exercise, a cool beer and a good snack

We started in thick fog, but after about an hour, the fog finally appeared. There are many beautiful views over the reservoir and the idyllic autumn landscape.
Definitely a beautiful tour, not just in the fall.
