Itinerary description

|
Show original
Very nice and friendly path that goes to the side of the creek going up and down the hill and getting closer and away from the creek. It has several bridges and crossings of downspouts (mini streams) that feed the stream parallel to the path.
It is very worth it !! Ideal for a recreational hike as well as speed training as you can jog most of the way.
The most beautiful thing is from the beginning downstream to the 75% advance of the path. The bottom of the loop much better than the top.
