Shortly before the organ pipes you can choose different paths. The stairs lead up to the cliffs from which there are breathtaking views. Weatherproof clothing is recommended as well as suitable footwear. Small trails are signposted. The stairs are very, very steep, have very narrow steps, but a solid railing. It gets tight with oncoming traffic.
