      Very beautiful and impressive gorge. Sturdy shoes are a must. Once you get to the top, there are beautiful table and bench combos in the shade as well as an open shelter with a fireplace.

      We didn't descend again but continued up and descended further around the outside via a few switchbacks. We didn't meet anyone on the road except for a few sheep and goats.

      However, this means that around 10 km turns into just over 20 km with over 900 meters of elevation.
