Itinerary description

Not recommended! You have to jump over the gates and it’s not really legal to be in this part of the National Park.

If you’re crazy and stupid, then let me explain you the trail. First part is not the easiest to follow but mostly the path is recognizable. After you arrive to the main road of the National Park, everything goes easy. Don’t forget to bring a lot of water (1,5L is not enough) and some food for yourself. There is no tap or place to buy food on the way, it’s all abounded. I went to the right when I was so close to the top, I suggest you to turn left and don’t pay entrance fee. Left side has the best view and highest point. The other one goes to the ticket office and you have to buy a ticket if you choose that one. Enjoy!
