Hiking

On a sunny day in Somner think about sun protection - there are hardly any shady places.

The descent down to the lake in the crater is an absolute dream. The unique flora in the crater leaves us in awe. However, what we descend, we have to climb back up again on the way back. A short, but worthwhile tour!
