Itinerary description

The first part of the trail takes you through the forest and is mostly uphill. As the trail is not always clearly visible, make sure you keep an eye on the trail on the GPS.

Please be mindful of shepherd dogs as you're likely to see a few, particularly on this part of the trail. A firm wooden stick to keep them at bay is highly recommended.

After the hills and the forest you pass through Muratkoru, a small village, continuing to Eskigomu and eventually Gomu.
