Unfortunately, it was not usable on June 11, 2025, and the gravelly access roads should not remain like this! But the cycle path is a good thing on the busy road.

A Jewish cemetery that is still accessible, which is no longer possible in some other places. It would be interesting to plan a detour here.

Good asphalt. You can just walk all the way to the town. At the top you have a great view.
