An intriguing bridge consisting of (you guessed it) 5 stones was probably built in 1833. Indeed, this date is engraved under one of the stones. The popular theory is that the riverbed and its banks have sunk somewhat over the past 200 years and that this bridge was more of a ford.

A beautiful nature reserve that rightly deserves a lot of protection. It is beautiful in every season. In the fall from the fall best with waterproof hiking boots :) https://youtu.be/xrRmo6SDmSI

As its name suggests, a small bridge made up of 5 stones spanning the Ornette. Accessible in Gravel or mountain biking but hiking will be preferred if you want to cross it and fully enjoy the place.
