EXPECTATIONS!
1. It is a very nice and quite place very good for nature lovers and those who like being enveloped by nature. Those who don’t like quite places bring a lot of friends.
2. It can get cold sometimes due to wind and fog depending on the day you will be visiting.
3. It is regularly visited by people so you can see pathways, it’s easy to navigate where to go and explore.
4. I wish there were signs where not to enter because there were houses at some ends.
5. It is also a good place for mountain bikers. Very good for beginners to train. The land is wide and there is a designated area for you guys.
6. For hikers it’s 1/10 difficulty. It’s a very good place for relaxation away from the city life. If the weather is good it is very good to stay and relax a bit.
7. At the end, “The Warrior’s Nest” there is an obstacle course for children. I’m very positive they will have a great time.
WHAT TO BRING.
1. Packed dessert, lunch and water. There is a restaurant and stores near if you also want to travel weigth-less.
2. Umbrella incase it will rain. There are small places for shelter but if you happen to be in the middle of exploring it’s a handy tool.
3. Clothes, wear whatever is comfortable with you going to a forest. The path is good, shoes are ok no need for boots.
Notices: Keep the area trash free, bring your own waste home.
