It was about an hour and a half drive up to the top of the mountain. It was a pretty winding road but the driver was much more cautious than most US drivers are when driving on mountain roads. There are signs to "please honk" every time you go around a turn. Which meant there was a lot of honking.
The path on the way up was 2km and mostly paved.
The summit. It was a little disappointing because there wasn't much of a view and it was very cloudy. Below is the best shot of the view.
The last little part of the hike to get to the summit was through some low shrubbery. I wore long pants and my closed toes keens and didn't think much about it. UNTIL....Joy found these lovely little wormy bug things all over her legs. She was not a fan of them especially because she was wearing shorts. Our guide pulled at least 20 of them off the two of us and calming released them onto the plants around us. GROSS!!
On our way back (driving) he stopped at an over look with the view we had expected from the top of the summit.
This is over looking one of the traditional villages you can go and visit. Not sure if we are going to make that trip.
