From this vantage point, you are slightly above the bay, offering a magnificent panoramic view. You can choose to lean back against one of the rocks and enjoy the peaceful surroundings, a little away from the hustle and bustle of this dream sport, or admire the view from the benches.

Yes, it is a nice walking area and also for running last Saturday I walked there, around the lake, together with a colleague, unfortunately he was not wearing walking shoes. this is certainly useful. It also seems like a lovely place for me in the summer, where I can also swim in the lake
