The trail is dotted with sheltered huts, making it a great all‑weather walk.

I hit it at the wrong time for photos: harsh midday sun and choppy water. But in warm, sunny weather, I couldn’t resist capturing it anyway. I’m simply documenting the place as I found it.

It’s even more beautiful at sunrise and sunset, when the light settles and the whole place feels calm.

This photograph was taken in the final month of autumn, when the landscape still holds its last traces of colour.
