I still had good memories of the trail and was not surprised that I was very happy to walk …

Start at the church. For much of the route, the trail parallels the Cultural Trail. Once the first climb is over, the walk becomes quite relaxed, allowing you to enjoy the pine forests. At the end, you can stop at the pleasant café for a delicious coffee specialty.
