Itinerary description

Quite technical trail with views only at the top. It's a continuous climb, 1st through forest, then on rocks and eventualy quite extreme climbing on the lion itself.
We had a lot of clouds, so couldn't see much, but for those who like climbing on rocks, it's still a very nice trail.
A lot of different edible mushrooms and berries on the way!
Note we missed a turn right close to the start of the trail so backtrackrd a little.
Also, this is actually a loop, but we left one car in a bigger parking, so the recording ends there, and starts at the immediate parking of the trail
