Very beautiful surroundings, the bike path runs quite directly through it and sometimes has limited visibility. The most beautiful places here can only be reached on foot, which is really worth it.

A great route that - at least today - can easily be ridden even with touring bikes. I even kept meeting road cyclists. The campsite is basic, but has everything you need and lots of space. 😃
