    The 12-kilometre-long Palaeozoic Route takes you on a journey through 100 million years of world history. Remains from the last ice age, ancient rocks and the first land plants can be discovered on this route. The route leads mostly through the forest and offers a refreshment stop after about two thirds of the way.
