FAQs
Plan to walk at least 1.5 miles over alternating terrain with rocks, roots, and leaves, including inclines and hills. You also go up high on a few cliffs and into a rock canyon.
Wear closed-toe shoes (required) and weather-appropriate clothing for slow hiking; long pants can help avoid scrapes. Bring water (preferably in a reusable bottle) and consider bug repellent, rain gear, and layered clothing depending on the season.
The tour is recommended for older children (typically ages 12+) and adults because it goes more in depth than typical tours. Participants should be at least 6 years old, and anyone under 18 must be accompanied by an adult.
