Worth the trip up, it's a beautiful viewpoint, but you definitely have to be careful if you don't have a great deal of hiking / scrambling experience. The walk up from the bike parking area is very easy, around 10 mins, but when you get closer to the main rock / viewpoint part, some light climbing is required. Make sure you wear proper shoes, I was stupid enough to wear crocs + no socks so my feet were slipping and I had to do the climbing back with no shoes lol. As I always say with hiking segments just take your time and you'll be fine 🙂
I left my scooter near a small café and walked about 20 minutes to reach the viewpoint. I highly recommend wearing proper athletic shoes. The path is manageable in most parts, but near the end it becomes more difficult and a bit dangerous — especially if you are wearing flip-flops or slippery shoes. If you want to go all the way to the very edge of the rock, you need to be extra careful. I definitely do not recommend this place for anyone with a fear of heights. The walk itself is beautiful, through the forest, and it leads to a large rock with an incredible panoramic view. From the top, it feels like you are in an airplane, looking down at two beaches — one on the right and one on the left. The view is truly breathtaking. Bring water or a juice with you — it’s necessary, especially in the heat. Overall, a wonderful viewpoint and absolutely worth the effort!
