Highlight • Settlement

Nice place to leave your bike and walk through at your leisure. Bikes must remain outside the fortress and can be secured to steel racks.

The view of the place compensates for the effort.
The direction we have chosen has the gentlest gradients and goes through lavender fields with interesting irrigation systems.
