Along this stage, there are many local gems to discover. The wooded trail first leads through the so-called "Ghost Grove" before extending into the Stinder Valley. There, you'll find the well-preserved Stinder Mill, dating back to 1707, whose millstone recalls its original function. Later used as a school, it illustrates the interplay between craftsmanship and education. Nearby, the sculpture "Mary in the Valley," created by locals, invites you to take a break. Finally, the historic Morp House awaits, with its turret and stepped gable. Its publicly accessible landscaped garden offers the perfect place to relax and conclude your day of hiking.
