Itinerary description

I was the first to arrive at the place.
There is a free parking zone.
It was very early, cold, and you could see the frost on the grass.
From the minute you start your hike, it is an uphill in the middle of a very beautiful and autumn coloured vegetation.
The trail is easy to follow. Just look for the small wooden stick indicating the way.
After a bit less than 1 km, I had to cross the river. It was manageable and not deep. With good hiking shoes, you can easily do it.
The place is amazing and almost everywhere you look, you will see some waterfalls.
Once at the cliff, you will have an unforgettable view at the canyon.
It's really mesmerising.
On my way back, I tried to take another route. Luckily, I found a small trail along the valley that took me back to my car.
The hike is easy to moderate and for sure not to be missed.
Cheers and enjoy !!!
