Itinerary description

Easy / moderate with steep inclines / descents
Walking poles useful to help crossing river. 5 river crossings but narrow and shallow with stepping stones. (There are now bridges at all river crossings)
A beautiful circular walk, stunning wild flowers along the trail. My favourite short(ish) walk.

    Abwechslungsreiche Flora an Orangenplantagen am Flüsschen entlang und schöne Aussicht am höchsten Punkt.
    Gemütliche Wanderung.
    Zwischen drin immer wieder etwas Schatten.

    Holá magwood, I can confirm your view: a lovely stroll! I did it with my family in these days. Greetings to the mountains, Alexander

    There's a barrier across part of the path down to the river, there has been a landslide. However path is still there if you go round the barrier just a little sketchy.
