This morning I set out before 6 a.m. to hike the customs officer's path. The harbor was still asleep, the sea was roaring and a pleasant breath of sea air could be felt. A man was sitting in a café reading a newspaper. I quickly left civilization. On my right was the sea and on my left mountains and green …

A great hike with the opportunity to take a refreshing dip in the sea in beautiful bathing bays (we did it in three bays) and to cool down in the Genoese tower with a view.
