Overall rating
  • Went here on 17/12/2018 in sunny weather conditions. Rough trail as it’s very steep at some points and there are many obstacles, mainly broken trees, on the path. We started at the picnic table and after 1,25 hours we found ourselves standing on the large boulders mesmerized by the view. First hike in years which made it a very tough trip up, however the view was definitely worth it!
