Great destination! Enjoyed the open trail and peaceful outdoor atmosphere.

I'm not sure it is worth the double fee (5 euro entrance to the national park and then about 8 for the fortress/meuseum). It was pretty nice and the views are great, but for the money I can't get myself to give it more then a 3.
