Itinerary description
Distance: 2.7 km.
Elevation low/high/total: 99/133/63 m.
Difficulty: 2.2/10.
Scenic: 6.5/10
This is a relatively easy 2 km round trip hike to the remains of a WWII Japanese built railroad bridge. Along the way you see some remains of the wooden cross beams (the iron tracks are long gone) and occasionally you can find a rusty spike. At the main river the concrete trestle bases are still there with a bit of wood still inside rotting away. The hike path along the old track has been almost entirely reclaimed by nature.

Parcours fort sympathique, passant le long de la rivière. Ce dernier a des intéressants spots.
