Here rest our soldiers: sons and fathers. A sorrowful place. By the small chapel lies a book with their names and dates of birth and death. So many young people who had to give their lives for the Fatherland.

A rooty, rough, and somewhat remote trail. Nevertheless, it's a fun ride, with a beautiful and, in places, rustic route and a convenient downhill finish, right at the charcoal kiln festival grounds. A large "Kiln Festival" takes place there once a year.
