April 9, 2023 at 11:45 amAbsolutely great park. Lots to see, and lovely trails to take. If you are up to it you can went up to the summit. The owner Ian are very hands on, and are willing to help when needed. NOT SO GOOD:The last 3km of dirt road are very bad. Shop are not close by. BUT :All in all it is a place worth visiting!
