Incredible tour worth the effort - It is a beautiful route, where you can take advantage of the silence and nature. But yes, the path to the caisson is full of rocks, apart from the height, which may be a problem for some, but it is very worth it. The food up there was also great. The guide Lucas was a genius, always paying attention to how the group was doing.
