center
The main feature on this hike is a rustic stone-walled farmstead built by the owners with their own hands using exclusively natural building materials. The farm houses and outbuildings of the Dusterhof farmstead have progressively been expanded over the years and the raspberry vines growing on the vertiginous slopes, help to make the Dursterhof quite unique.
