Hiking
In 2000, the new runway, which was extended to 2,777 meters, was opened. The railway extension was realized over a bay with a complex support structure. The 3 meter thick concrete pillars used are up to 120 meters long, of which up to 59 meters are above ground, the rest is underground or anchored in the seabed. Sometimes you drive under the runway by car.
