    Hiking

    Their is a cairn to indicate different route options - the actual summit is a bit further away from the cliff and comes with a proper trig point.

    A small stone pyramid marks the highest point.

    Hiking

    The lower section of the circular trail offers a new perspective on the fascinating rock formations with every step. And you're right in the middle of it all. The upper section of the trail offers even more expansive views. Easily manageable with sturdy footwear.
    A highly recommended trail!
