Very enjoyable trip with great views, 2h15m in one way more less, one sided traffic on foot often, four tunnels and two of them -light is a must. Bring diapers - one WC on the start, crowded and narrow trail , beside these a great place to hike 🫠🙃

Very unusual and beautiful trail. From the first minutes you feel like in Jurassic Park. After reading many reviews that this trail is most of time wet due to the waterfalls and humidity, we’ve decided to do it today after the rain.. and it gave extra difficulty to it. Proper shoes, raincoat and flashlight are essential. Also get some snacks and enough water. The whole trail is divided in 2 parts. The first one is 6,5 km one way and ends with the beautiful waterfall. Then there’re other 2 km, which were closed today due to the weather conditions. We did both ways in approx. 4 hours, but it was tough as after the rain it was very slippery. Views had special beauty on this rainy day. Definitely would come back in summer to dive into waterfalls and enjoy bright scenery.

We only had time to do the first park of this hike, but it was beautiful! It is wet, so wear your hiking boots and maybe bring a rain coat, but I think it just added to the vibes. It's also fun following the water and watching the trout swim. You do pay to park for this one, and pay in the building in the main area before you leave. There's also a small fee to use the WC. Also, the road leading up to this hike is pretty tight! Get ready to pull over so other cars can get by.
