Coming from the north, third option to get to the Gorropu Gorge.
At first mostly moderate descent, at the end steep. Partly gravel and scree on the way, so best with sturdy and closed shoes. Descent approx. 1:30, ascent approx. 2:00 hours. Entry to the gorge 6€ adults, 4€ reduced (May 2024) to be paid at the tent at the entrance to the gorge. Plan about 1 hour in the gorge.
Alternatives: ascent and descent by jeep for 38 per person Campo Base Gola del Garropu on the SS 125 or walk down and only drive up to the SS125 18€.
Or drive yourself to the parking lot in the valley (Parcheggio Tiscali - S'Abba Arva). From there it is about a 2 hour walk (i.e. 4 hours there and back) to the entrance to the gorge.
