놀라운 지형! 편안한 산책
신기한 간헐천과 그로인해 생긴 지형을 여유롭게 둘러보며 걸을 수 있었음.

Absolutely stunning
The track is absolutely amazing. It leads you to all of the scenic parts of the location. You get to go really close to the geothermal action, and in some areas you are immersed in it. The staff there are friendly and very helpful too. They do have a cafe there too. I do think that you may need to take your time walking up the track if you don't have a moderate level of fitness. Take lots of water with you too, because the heat from the geothermal areas may dehydrate you.
