Itinerary description

First 20 minutes are dull, followed by an amazing trail through a narrow canyon. You could easily turn around and reverse back through the canyon after the secret waterfall or continue up the mountainside for a nice view. Trail is well marked with blue markings, is difficult in sections with fall exposure and cliff paths.

This website does a great job of detailing the hike:

    Hélas le chemin s'arrête juste avant le point de vue tout en haut de la montagne puisque l'échelle est cassée ! On doit donc rebrousser chemin.
