Very nice walk along the river. Enchanting landscapes. A bit sporty especially in wet weather. Done in two hours.

Avoid in wet conditions because some passages are quite hard. Very little road.

Not suitable for strollers, toddlers and people with reduced mobility.

An apparently innocent hike that had its difficulty level boosted to the max due to the heavy rains of the past days ⛈️😬. The terrain was muddy, the trail was not clear the whole time, but that gave a tint of adventure that was satisfying 🧭. Happy for that!
