Trail Construction
The steep slopes and wet surrounds combine to necessitate a network of paths through the park. Here you can see how the locals (the park is maintained by local county authorities) utilise timber from the park itself to build and maintain the network. The land for the park was donated by a benefactor decades ago, it having been subject to clear fell logging. The forest you see is all, therefore, '2nd growth forest'. There's still a fair bit of lumber lying around.
