Itinerary description
3 in 1
- climb up 1/3 of the mount (this part is feasible without risk, no cords, ladders....)
- the round trip around the mountain. Not as easy as it seems with over 10m/s wind... The path is collapsing due to erosion so beware of holes hidden under the grass. Nice view all around with a changing landscape. Many birds sheep’s and horses.
- the cascade. Very busy with tourists but the view is worth it with the mount in the back!
Not many people at the climb, alone on the round trip and the packed waterfall emptied of its tourists after 6:00 pm...
A nice hike!
