    Mooie wandeling in de buurt van Teror. Goede gids gaf veel interessante info tijdens de wandeling. hij had voldoende oog voor de veiligheid en paste het tempo aan aan de conditie van de deelnemers. Op het einde van de wandeling was er maar weinig tijd (20 minuten) om Teror te bezoeken, wij hadden hiervoor graag iets meer tijd voor gehad.
