Hiking

Access to the starting point by bus or taxi (easier). Beautiful, well-maintained, and marked trails. Impossible to get lost. Pay attention to the weather; if it's cloudy, you won't see anything... frustrating. Don't do the loop; finish at the visitor center, you'll find it easier to get transport.
