The routes mainly lead along asphalted coastal roads with little traffic and through small, typical villages. When hiking, the stages run along narrow coastal paths, partly over rocky and technically more demanding sections along the "Zöllnerpfad". All in all, the route alternates between quiet side roads, panoramic passages and natural paths through the maquis. - Tour operated by
