Today, after the rain, I hiked up to this viewpoint. The trail is quite manageable; it took me 12 minutes because I was hurrying. Rain was forecast, so I wanted to get to the top quickly. Thanks to the handrails from about halfway up, it was very easy. No climbing was required, but it was still strenuous. The view from the top was, of course, breathtaking, as expected. The hike back down took me 20 minutes. I was alone the entire way and at the viewpoint itself.

It's tough. It's not much different from famous spots. During the rainy season, be careful as the ground is very slippery from the previous day's rain. There are a lot of rocks, so it's even more slippery. Hiking boots are recommended. At the very least, you should avoid flip-flops. Getting injured here could ruin your important trip. After all that climbing, the view is amazing. Since there aren't many people climbing, you can have the view all to yourself. The hard work to get here, and the sense of accomplishment from this spectacular view... It's hot and humid, so you'll sweat a lot, but it will be a great memory. That red vintage bike is cool.
