Itinerary description

A beautiful VF, quite easy, probably a B / K2.
There are two routes, one easier one, one a little longer and more challenging. We did the longer one with two ziplines and a lot of other fun stuff.
At some points it would be nice to have signs indicating which way to go. That was especially the case where you walk into the huge crevice and there are irons to the right, but also to the left with a hole. Later we found out that you can take wither one and they end up in the same place, but it would have been nice to be informed about the options.
Once you get up on top, the views are amazing. You can see the extinct volcanoes with the villages in between, it's fascinating.
The easier route is definitely good for beginners also.

Here you can either climb through the hole or use the iron steps on your right to climb up. Both with end up in the same place. Unfortunately there is no explanatory sign here.
