So if you visit around area and you are looking for a less crowded super nice , I can highly recommend this tour (with a view). I am not a strong uphill runner, so I did quite a bit of (fast) hiking, but still it a super to run track. Stats: about 15 km and and close to 1000 m elevation gain and 8 summits or so :)
