Resource access level
It is recommended to reach the viewpoint on foot from the main square to enjoy the walk through the village and take time to sit on the benches and admire the landscape. Bringing a windproof jacket is advisable on cold or windy days, and the visit can be complemented with other viewpoints in the municipality.
Some access streets are sloped and may become slippery during rainy conditions, so caution is advised when walking. If arriving by car, it is important to respect traffic signs and maneuver carefully through the narrow streets of the lower part of the village.
