Highlight (Segment) • Other

The path is varied and interesting, but never too difficult. Because of the exposed location, it could look very different in strong winds, so be careful! Coming from the south, …

Very varied hike today - first scrambling and challenging terrain on the ridge. Then beautiful mixed forest of beech, pine and old oak trees. Then over a quiet plateau full of exposed boulders to a crystal clear river surrounded by lush greenery. Finally an area with wild horses and pigs.
Great again!
