A lovely walk on quiet, well-maintained paths and roads. The only drawback is the section along the sewage treatment plant where it can get quite smelly.

Beautiful views on a large part of the walk. It is fairly easy, except for the first few kilometers, which are so steep that you need good walking sticks when descending, because of the loose rocks.
