    This was a mostly easy hike. We drove to a higher altitude and started hiking a 8.3 km trail. The trail is downhill. Only at the beginning the trail is a bit steep and rocky but eventually you reach the river and the walk is very easy. The tour guide is a very kind man. We enjoyed talking with him. You need water. We didnt get hungry but if you need it you should bring your own food. I was able to do the hike with a running shoe. It was a great east hike!
