I did this walk last year, is definitely for the experienced walker with good shoes. You will also encounter warnings along the way. Definitely not suitable for people with a fear of heights or the elderly who are not used to climbing over rocks or descending on sliding stones. You walk right past the gorge, with nothing to hold on to. If you are easily dizzy, do not do this walk, one misstep and you are in the valley. Do not underestimate this very beautiful walk.

Hiking

This was a lovely hike but it definitely wasn’t easy like Komoot rated it! Very uneven surface for the whole route, and a very steep climb at the end to get back to the car park
