Assend riges to overvie valleys or enjoy the streams meandering through the valleys. Sometimes smaller or bigger waterfalls offer their collecting ponds to take a dip in cooling water. Natural and man made picnic spots tempt to rest and enjoy the vibrating cicada sounds during the summer season, birdsongs, or splashing, and gurgeling of water in unspoiled natural setting.

Some of these places are aside of car park and others are the reward for some excercise, sharing peace and beauty.
