Guidelines

Start Early for Best Experience: Climb early in the morning (around 6:00–7:00 AM) or late afternoon (around 4:00–5:00 PM) to avoid the harsh sun and enjoy sunrise or sunset views. The mid-day heat can be uncomfortable. Wear Proper Footwear: Although it’s an easy hike, parts of the trail can be rocky or slippery. Wear hiking shoes or strong trainers with good grip to avoid injuries. Carry Water but Avoid Plastic Waste: Take a reusable water bottle. The climb is short but can still be tiring in the heat. Avoid leaving plastic bottles or wrappers—leave no trace. Be Cautious with Cliffside Photos: There are stunning views at the peak, but stay away from edges when taking pictures—several areas are steep and lack barriers.
