The root path is a dream for children It's not that far, and not unusually steep, and easy to walk. A little difficult in places for the little ones with their short legs. But together it works very well and they are always so sweet on the way back! 😴

Very worth seeing little church. A piece of jewelry both inside and out. Not to be forgotten is the viewing platform on the tower. From there you have a great view.
