点评:I really enjoyed this trip. There was a fairly large group I think of about 30 people on our booked trip. The farm was easy to find. There is about 7km of gravel road leading up to the farm, it is bumpy in places. I recommend keeping your speed down.
The check in process for the walk was straight forward and the information was clear. There is a disclaimer to read and sign and a map to photograph although it would be hard to get lost. There is about a 15min ride across the farm to the track start and finish. We rode on the trailer although there is the option to ride inside the 4WD vehicle.
The track is well marked but challenging in places due to recent storm damage. I would recommend trail shoes as a minimum. I should have studied the information more closely as I would recommend wearing togs as some parts of the water got chest deep although we took the options to stay relatively dry from waist up. I would recommend a dry bag to protect electronics like car keys and mobile phones particularly if you are going to swim out at the end. My son took his shoes off to wade through the river, I would not recommend this. There are a number of obstacles to beware of and it is recommended to borrow a walking stick although we got by without one. The chasm is amazing. Loads of photo opportunities and the waterfall and the cave along the way are a must to see.
Unfortunately, I had a mishap at the very end and slipped on the bottom step of the style over the farm fence and sprained my ankle. One of those things but be careful of your footing. I take nothing away from the trip and a first aid kit is available at the start/finish. I was fortunate this mishap did not happen on the walk itself.
翻译:我非常享受这次旅行。我们预订的团人数不少,大概有30人左右。农场很容易找到。通往农场的路是一条大约7公里的碎石路,有些地方比较颠簸。我建议减速慢行。
徒步的登记流程很简单,信息也很清晰。需要阅读并签署免责声明,还要拍照留存地图,不过应该很难迷路。从农场到步道起点和终点大约需要15分钟车程。我们乘坐的是拖车,当然也可以选择乘坐四驱车。
步道标识清晰,但由于最近的暴风雨,部分路段比较难走。我建议至少穿一双徒步鞋。我应该更仔细地阅读相关信息,因为有些地方水深及胸,建议穿泳衣,虽然我们选择了上半身相对干燥的装备。我建议带一个防水袋来保护车钥匙、手机等电子产品,尤其是在最后打算游泳的情况下。我儿子脱了鞋趟过河,我不建议这么做。沿途有很多障碍物需要注意,建议借一根登山杖,虽然我们没用也顺利通过了。峡谷景色令人叹为观止。沿途有很多拍照的好地方,瀑布和洞穴也绝对不容错过。
可惜的是,我在行程快结束时出了点小意外,在农场围栏的台阶最下面一级滑倒,扭伤了脚踝。这种事难免发生,但一定要注意脚下。不过,这次旅行本身并没有让我失望,而且起点/终点都有急救箱。幸运的是,这次意外并没有发生在徒步过程中。
