Approximately 30min to go down to the world deepest gorges. 900m deep for 1km rim to rim. I saw a bear near the path 10m from me but he was more scared than me and directly ran away. A local told me that she saw some deer a few days ago. Don't forget to take some water, even that it's not a long hike, it's steep.
