Info in leichter Sprache:
Der Weg zum Aussichtspunkt ist lang, steil und anstrengend. Auch kann man stolpern oder gar abstürzen. Der Ausblick ist aber toll. Man sieht schöne Berge und ganz viel Wald. Es gibt auch eine Hütte, in der man picknicken kann. Auf einer Liegebank kann man ausruhen. Am Weg stehen nicht überall Schilder. Man muss dann dem Logo folgen. Daher nehmen Sie am besten eine Begleitperson mit, damit Sie sich nicht verlaufen oder weh tun.
