Was the bike path clearly separated from car traffic? Was it easy to follow thanks to signs and markings? Were the crossings safe and well-designed? Did you notice any obstacles, potholes, poor pavement, or blind spots? Think about kids, older people, or anyone with reduced mobility — could they use this route comfortably? 👉 Tell us everything you noticed, what you liked, and what you’d improve to make this route safe and welcoming for all!</div>

I partly partook in today’s ride, but had already walked the route few days ago. The route felt safe both as biker and walker. In some parts, the route path was shared with cars, e.g. in the outskirts of Saron near the autovia, though a line clearly separated the car part and bike/foot path. Intersections were clearly pointed out, though bikes didn’t have any right, rather had to give way to cars.

I do think the route is accessible even for older people and children. Very small smarts were not paved, wondering this could also be accessible for wheelchair users.

I really appreciated the shade provided by trees in such a hot day!
