Route

The trail starts at the lookout and follows the edge of the canyon through the high-altitude grasslands, with several stops to admire the cliffs and waterfalls. It is important to be careful, since there are no guardrails at the lookouts and, in case of fog, the danger increases. Visitors are advised to check in town about visibility conditions before going, which is why hiring a guide is important.
