suitable for every fitness level. There is a spacious car park just a few minutes' walk away along a flat, narrow road to the beginning of the small dam. On the well-maintained path around the water I saw parents with strollers, and also an elderly person in a wheelchair. However, there are only a few benches; and the circular path through the village and then across the road is quite long.
