Itinerary description

This hike is very straight forward , once you reach the junction in Los Colonos - you turn right and keep on the jeep road all the way up. I was the only one doing it on foot , the rest were going up and down on Cautrimotors and motorcycles splashing mud all over. Every time I heard them coming , I moved aside and waited for them to pass. The climb is not so hard, it becomes a bit more steep only at the last kilometer, still I labeled it as "difficult" due to the length ~10 km each direction and the fact I had bad luck and did this hike on a very rainy day , so I had to cross rivers of running water along the way.
