From the park website: "This trail has undulating terrain, stairs and steep sections; the trail can be very hot, with temperatures often reaching 45 degrees Celsius; hikers should wear hats & sunscreen & bring plenty of water; trail provides access to hoodoos, sandstone cliffs & rock art; upland prairie grasslands, river, river valley & coulees provide habitat for numerous wildlife species; sturdy footwear required; sandstone formations & vegetation are easily damaged - hikers are asked to stay on designated trails."
Water is a definite must on this hike. Also be aware that depending on the time of the year, rattlesnakes may be present, so the warnings to stay on the trail are for reasons other than just damaging the sandstone formations and vegetation.
