Itinerary description
|
Short but very demanding ascent to the Koko Crater.
You park at the foot of the volcano, there is plenty of space and totally free.
The climb is completely vertical using the sleepers of an old railway as improvised steps. It gets really hard, but the views are a good reward.
In the middle there is a section of the track that is in the "air", and you have to jump from crossbar to crossbar. On the way up it wasn't wet and ok, but on the way down it had rained and they were super slippery. Better to use the alternate shortcut if it doesn't look clear.
