(0)  0154There is a gorge in the national park nearby, for just a short 1-2k walk you can get some great views down into the river, and ever hike a little down to swim. Worth stopping for an afternoon to enjoy. I don't remember having to pay to get in anywhere, so it's a low-budget wonder :) Good tip? (0)  092Wear suncreen HIGHEST possible SPF, and stay hydrated. The best time to visit is in the Summer, less humid.
