    Interesting information, knowledgeable guide, gave history of land development as well as nature. The group was too big, with a fast pace, and there was a second group from the same company which meant that both groups mixed. The leader went ahead and was completely out of sight leaving half the group behind on a rough footpath section showing lack of group control. It was only that the second group leader was behind us to know that we were heading in the right direction.

    The walk was lovely, sheltered by the tree's which as the day was very hot helped, there were some very steep sections which I wasn't expecting, especially down to the Wind Lagoon Lake, which we then had to climb back up. Given the option I wouldn’t have gone down, the waterfall wasn't amazing. Having said that when we reached the lavarda it was very pleasant. Our guide (sorry forgot her name began with M) was amazing she took great care over everyone and was a pleasure to be around.

    A beautiful walk. Needs more information about what to wear - only mentioned a light jacket. For us it was only 3C and wet when we started. Needed much more than a light jacket which luckily we had brought with us.

    I am walking-fit and found the first half (the climb) of the walk to be hard work but it was well worth it. The dip in the mountain lagoon was cold and rejuvenating. The guide was both knowledgeable and entertaining and she looked after us all. A memorable experience, thank you!
