Точно так же называется солевой тропой, это был путь, используемый для передачи соли по всему региону. Вернувшись в день, прямо здесь, в нагорье, соль чрезвычайно ценно.
Согласно нашему руководству, путь простирается в течение 2-3 километров, показывает три человека, сделанные туннелями или пещерами, вырезанными со значительными камнями.
Есть действительно два троса – гораздо проще нисходящий путь, а также путь вверх. Trailhead по нисходящему маршруту находится недалеко от зоны парка Сакура, в то время как подход подходящего маршрута находится между km46, а также KM47 (ориентир ориентира: JNB дизельной станции).
