A very enjoyable walk with some exciting bridges. - This entailed a good, pleasant walk and several hanging bridges which were fun. We saw some wildlife but, as the weather was a little damp, I expect they were mostly in their homes watching tv. I enjoyed the experience very much.

This was so much fun. I... - This was so much fun. I 100% recommend. The first bridge was the highest so pretty steep walk but sooooo gorgeous on the bridge. Takes about two hours but one of the bridges was closed so took about an hour and half. Overall, amazing.

Breathtaking views and great exercise! - We loved going at our own pace (fast... lol) especially since it was pouring rain the whole time and we finished in about an hour. We slowed down going over the bridges to admire the beautiful scenery. We were able to pass the big tour groups with ease lots of excuse me and thank you's in multiple languages lol. The views are breathtaking! Bring comfy shoes and rain gear!

Lovely and peaceful. - We were lucky enough to have beautiful weather. This was a wonderful and peace walk. So much wildlife, flowers and plants. The air is so fresh. I could walk there daily. Bring water to drink along the way but no plastic bottles.
