This is the only "trail" in Black Canyon of the Gunnison National that gives you the opportunity to experience the inner canyon and river without having to climb down and up the steep walls. Having said that, this is by all means not a 'walk in the park', there's a lot of scrambling and climbing over boulders involved.
