As we call this hike between ourselves, it is a "lazy Sunday walk". A very short route with a small elevation gain. I would say it is a nice hike for locals, but it is not as pretty as other hikes. It is not a walk, for which one could drive for an hour. There aren't benches to sit on, but one can find some green areas to sit on not far from the river. We passed a few hikers, a few dogs and runners.


Most of the walk is between trees and next to the river. The whole route at the river bank follows a single track path. At the initial descent there is a nice and clear view at the bridge. During this stroll we came across a short rock tunnel. At the second half of this walk, there are information boards and a few viewpoints towards the river.


There is a possibility to extend this hike, as the path keeps following the river for much longer.
