El tour es trekking de casi continuo nosotros íbamos al final y nos pasamos casi todo el rato mirando las piedras donde pasábamos. Muy pocas paradas para disfrutar de las vistas o hacer fotografías. Se empieza el trekking y vas como a la carrera. Al llegar a un punto que paraba cuando llegabamos los últimos apenas descansabamos y no nos daba tiempo hacer fotografías. Se tiene que pensar en los últimos cuando lleguen de darles tiempo para descansar algo. Sitio impresionante pero si buscas disfrutar de tiempo para hacer fotografías…”
