“if you want to see some fantastic views this is the hike to take. I found the higher route tricky but they offered us an alternative route which was alot easier. where really good shoes, hiking shoes are the best. I was wearing trainers and struggled during parts. The food at the end was an added bonus, very tasty. Bring some Euros to give the farmer after your meal. Tour guides really nice. overall great day!”

I'm older and I'm pretty good shape, but I could see where it would be hard for some people.. One of our friends had to only go a little ways cause it was too hard for him. He was still able to enjoy the view so glad I didn't miss it The guided were great and it helped having the walking sticks.”
