Believe everyone - it is definitely steep! Definitely need a base level of fitness to tackle this. The footing was great, easy 1km bush walk to the base, then a concrete path for 700 metres. Omg, that 700 metres is hard. Mostly a 45 degree incline but worse in other places. Only 700 metres so it is doable with many places to sit & rest on the way up. I didn’t sit but I did stop to catch my breathe a few times. Took me 32 mins up and then I waited for hubby for 10🤣 20 mins down, hard on your legs that way too due to angle. Recommend good tread on your shoes, toppling down is a definite concern and concrete is not soft! What a brilliant way to start the day, the views are amazing. Doubtful I will be able to walk tomorrow🤣 |
