Hiking

The little creatures are wild, but out of curiosity, they'll come up to you and beg for some nuts, then bring their friends with them. So, bring nuts, pine nuts, or pumpkin seeds.

Hiking

It is written that this route is easy, for the most part on well-maintained paths. However, this is not correct!! Be warned. Some parts are really difficult and certainly not suitable for every fitness level. For a large part it is really climbing and scrambling over boulders and a path is not visible. Good condition and good hiking boots are required!
