Beautiful paved railway path.

In some places, the path is almost impassable due to sand or rocks. On one side of the path, there's barbed wire, which you don't want to fall into.

I agree with Ingwer's tip; everything has been described, and there's nothing to add. A wonderful path.

The trail has now become a remarkable cycling route. The new asphalt on the former railway line makes for excellent cycling and is therefore highly recommended.
