The narrow, flat trail winds through green, mossy ground and trees. In the sunlight it's almost like a fairytale forest! If you go up again at the back on the left, you'll come back to the starting point and continue on tour number 9.

Great location with trails that leave nothing to be desired. From the casual blue ones to the batteries of the black ones.

Neat seating and functioning service station with screws and manual air pump (which - contrary to my expectations 😉 - works really well and is easy to use).
