What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors rave about the spectacular summit views and enjoyable, relatively easy walk up Benarty Hill. The initial steps are a fun feature, and the surrounding scenery is highly praised. However, the extremely limited parking is a significant drawback for many.
"Very nice and easy hike, not many parking lots. Around 40 minutes to go to the top and 1h40 to do the loop. Lovely scenery from the top."
Les avis d'un Alsacien / French's reviews
"Really fun hill with stairs to start off with. The big problem is theres very little parking maybe 5 cars and then it gets challenging. It there were only 2 others when I got there and saw more arriving whiling climbing the steps quick are really fun tbh. Was surprised when I got to the top though because I saw a lot more people so there must be other path you could take. Although acording to an order gentleman I met he said today was quiet I think he was local. Nice views and options to take some good pics. Gets a recommenation from me."
