You have to be careful when you take long tour that takes in Easter Island heads and The Bridal stones on the way to the heads the path goes through a farm where he's put up a fence to stop you. We had to Backtrack to the road and carry on round it added on about 2K however a great walk in all.

Unexpected in this part of the world, but definitely looking like a head carving from Easter Island
