A one-way hike that starts in the plain but very quickly begins to incline; further down the road, you can continue to the impressive view of the red rock known as Angel’s Landing. The following path is more challenging and dangerous as the trail is relatively narrow and requires rock/climbing, but the road is neat and not scary for those who are not afraid of heights and sure-footed. Because many travelers follow this route, there may be points where you have to wait until people coming from the other side pass by.
The first part of the track can be managed with a buggy but not recommendable, as it gets harder the longer the further the route leads to the summit.

Safety information
* Do not hike on-site during extreme weather conditions (e.g. strong winds, snowfall).
* In transition seasons make sure the road is open and safe for walking (due to snow and ice).
* Walk time must be scheduled to finish before sunset
* If you are traveling with young children in the area, keep an eye on them at every time. It is not safe to continue the walk with them after Angel’s Lookout point.
