    Hiking

    Gannets and guillemots breed here. The young guillemots throw themselves into the depths to reach the sea. Unfortunately, some young birds hit the rocks and die. The "Lummelsprung" (guillemot jump) takes place every year in the 2nd and 3rd week of June and attracts countless spectators. I find the spectacle a bit macabre, but that's nature. The birds also cannot hide their presence in terms of smell.
