worth the hike

Overall, definitely worth the hike! At first, we weren’t sure if the trail would actually lead us to the viewpoint, as it felt a bit isolated with hardly anyone else walking it. From the parking area, the path goes steadily upward. Once you reach the end of the navigation point, continue past the houses and farm, then follow the smaller trail that winds around the mountain. The reward is a breathtaking, peaceful view — truly mesmerizing. On the way back, look out for the purple house and the blue houses; from there, take the path leading down to another trail that guides you into the canyons, where you’ll find cafés and plenty of people swimming.
