Pack some food and a sleeping bag and spend a night or two here and enjoy being as close to wild nature as possible. Get up at around three or four in the morning and sneak out to watch the sunrise. If you are lucky, you may see some red deer which aren't as shy this time of day. Such an experience will definitely be the one that the children will tell their friends about back home.
