ORMA
A short interpretive circuit from Elvas to the Laugen wetland, a reed-fringed protected biotope set within the cultivated Natz–Schabs plateau. The official board lists 4.2 km, 100 m ascent and about 1½ hours.
This is a true loop: it closes back on its own start point, so there's no return leg to plan; with only 100 m of climbing, it's one of the gentler options in the area for older dogs or hot days.
