Drive as much of it as you can. Carry bottled water, and wear Hiking boots. We did the hike, and other travelers were very unprepared. No sunscreen, no hats, no water, no lip balm, all critical to be comfortable. Remember many areas are steep.

It may be winter, so just check the weather, go after sunrise and be out by 4pm when it starts to get dark. Let someone in town at your hotel know where you are going as a safety precaution. It is worth it and will be amazing!
