Place has a great selection of outdoor activities! I did the butterfly trail and can only but recommend it, however I'll share some tips: Only do the trail if you have a good health condition and stamina, because the difficulty of the road is indeed high. Please bring good shoes and plenty water, the road is uneven and rocky, plus the temperature rounds about 32 °C or beyond with a strong Sun. Never do the trail without a tour guide, because many areas of the trail there's no a proper road. Finally, my personal mark to walk the road is 1 hour and 28 min, so feel free to break it record ;) Viel Spaß!

If you like nature, hiking on trails and extreme games, you will probably love this place. Don't forget hydration, since the heat and sun are impeccable. Spacious and clean place. It has clean bathrooms and a cafeteria. The best thing is the guide who led us on a one-hour walk. Very attentive and explaining every detail of the place. I would definitely return.

Super recommended! The park is in very good condition, everyone who works there is super friendly and answers all the questions you have. Admission costs $5 which can then be used as credit for extreme activities. For the butterfly or adventure walks you have to pay extra, $3 and $7 respectively. The butterfly walk is supposedly an intermediate level but I found it difficult because it has a difficult climb. The cave of the “mystery” or charm is super beautiful, it is right at the beginning of the trails. The picnic and children's play area is super nice too.
