Itinerary description

|
Show original
At the beginning of the road, the section next to the fences is on a poorly maintained, very dense, sometimes prickly path. The ascent is very steep, you should bring a trekking pole or, if you have one, gloves, as the steel rope helps. From the top of the hill (bunker) there is a comfortable walk back, on a gentle slope, in a beautiful forest.
If we go up in the opposite direction, the steep section down is difficult to walk.

The first part of the hike, passing by the fences, leads through an overgrown, bushy, occasionally spiny track. The next part is very steep, hiking rods will come in handy. If you have gloves, they can also be of use, as there are steel cables by the track. Once you get to the top, the hike is a pleasant walk back to the departure point.
If you decide to do the route the other way round, the steep downhill stretch is very difficult.

Due to the microclimate, down in the valleys, where the cold air is trapped, dense pine forests are dark, while higher up, on the warmer, sunny southern sides, we can see beech and oak forests. The pine forest are at a lower altitude, beneath the beech and oak forests, due to the clinatic inversion (the colder air gets trapped in the valley)
