A charming place, though it seems more private than publicly accessible. There's a lack of general information about the rules of use (in terms of whether camping is allowed? Lighting a fire? Not how to behave, as everyone seems to understand that in such a spot).

The asphalt path through the reserve. Be careful because there are cars.
