Itinerary description

<<< English follows >>> Salimos en el parque natural de Binntal en dirección al barranco Twingi. La ruta es una caminata tranquila por una pista forestal, la mayor parte a la sombra de pinos y hayas. El coche se deja en un pueblo que hay después de Bächerhyschere, en un aparcamiento a la salida del pueblo con espacio para 8 o 9 vehículos. Hay una primera cima en una capilla que tiene también una mesa y agua para comer. La segunda cima está al final del camino, cuando se llega al barranco Twingi. Hay tramos de pista asfaltada, otros de tierra y algunos de grava. Casi todo es suelo cómodo. La pendiente no es excesiva y se camina fácilmente. Pasamos por un puente muy interesante y así llegamos hasta el barranco. <<< English >>> We go out in the natural park of Binntal towards the Twingi ravine. The route is an easy walk along a forest track, mostly in the shade of pine and beech trees. The car is parked in a village after Bächerhyschere, in a car park at the exit of the village with space for 8 or 9 vehicles. There is a first high in a chapel that also has a table and water to eat. The second summit is at the end of the trail, when you reach the Twingi ravine. There are sections of paved track, others of earth and some of gravel. Almost all the way is through comfortable soil. The slope is not excessive and you can walk easily. We went through a very interesting bridge and thus we reached the ravine.
