What to expect
The route winds through a genuine canyon system with a mix of walking, scrambling and rappelling. You'll be moving steadily for most of the five-and-a-half hours, negotiating rocky terrain and descending sections with ropes. The canyon floor is exposed in places—expect direct sun and minimal shade. Your guide will manage rope work and safety; you need reasonable fitness to handle the physical demands and no fear of heights. Bring at least a litre of water per person and proper snacks to maintain energy.
Good to know
Wear long trousers to avoid contact with local flora. Hiking boots or grip-soled shoes are essential. Not suitable for under-14s, pregnant travellers, those with spinal issues or cardiovascular concerns. Moderate fitness required. Public transport reaches the area.
