Itinerary description
Absolutely thrilling trail. Well traversed ascent to Chinamada - encountered 20+ people on their way down. From Chinamada on, the path gets really exciting, it narrows and gets darker & damper and the accompanying vegetation also changes. There are far fewer railings etc from this point on and some of the drops are quite sheer. There's also a section along which chains are provided to help your journey.
From Batanes on, it feels like a relentless straight down to the barranco floor where you then follow the river bed back to the sea. All this and virtually no other people. We saw only 2.
