Highlight • Cycleway

Black gold - absolutely the finest new asphalt, a pleasant slope and almost no cars (taking the shorter and steeper main road) make this bypass a dream. Again and again …

Here mountain roads and many hiking trails cross: a tourist access point with fantastic views and lots of magic at the stands. The hotel with the pool area is great, from which you can look directly into the caldera.
