Ride the line. If effort spikes, ease back into the rhythm — don't push through.
Accessibility · Mostly accessible
Continuous paths with occasional short ramps or gentle slopes. Sturdy strollers and most wheelchairs manage well; a companion is a kindness on the two or three brief rises. Long line — rest points every 2–3 km recommended for wheelchair users.
