The fortress - path
I walked the fortress path first. You can choose the 'covered' path, over which the soldiers could move quickly if necessary. I myself walked the sand path, just a little higher. You could look out on the old outer moat, the 'salty moat. '
The total fortress path around the Fortress is about 4 km. but there is a possibility to 'dive' into 'the fortress in between, to see the inside of the Fortress, the town itself.
