Distance: roughly 3km
Time: allow approx 2 hours for stops along the way.
Terrain:
Paths are well marked, there are steps in places, there are rest points available. An all-terrain buggy would work with assistance. In places the terrain is boggy, especially after rain. Strong footwear is necessary. There is a section of downhill that some people might find to be steep, but the path is very good.
