It is only 1.5 Miles long but you will pass 19 Waterfalls, two of which you can walk under, lush green vegetation, deep pools, and naturally carved rock. The elevetion changes so quickly that there is a series of staicases that go up the gorge, totalling more than 800 stone stairs. Due to the rugged nature of the terrain there are several stone bridges, and carved tunnels to walk through. This is a must see area if you are into hiking or waterfalls.
