a beautiful hike in this autumn season. At point 1, we continued along the route to change things up a bit and took the alternative route that leads to point 384. It's a very good path that shortens the route by about 500 metres. No matter, the rest was perfect, and we didn't see anyone else on the trail. Thanks to the trailblazer.
