- •This walk is not extremely difficult, with a total travel of approximately 7 km. However, it is not a simple walk and requires some effort. We do not recommend it for people with walking difficulties or who are not in regular physical condition. During the tour we make frequent stops and can do more if necessary. Since the ground can be slippery, it is important to come with good grip shoes. In addition, mosquitoes and insects can be present when walking in the mountains, so we recommend wearing a long-sleeved shirt and long pants.
