Summary: Wonderfully constructed walkway. Peaceful and gentle walk. A bit of a climb to get to and from walk, but good exercise. Did have assistance if requested. Great Cafe for meal of snack. Beautiful food, all homemade - even my nachos, which were to die for. Buy tickets in town at Information Centre - a little cheaper.
