Hiking

Already here from the parking lot the canyon looks great. The short hike from here to the rear viewing platform is really worthwhile.

Hiking

Great view from below into the gorge, especially in the sunshine. In the extremely clear water you can sometimes see large trout.

Actually, it's almost a perfect view of the canyon, but the short climb is still worth it.
