Loved the adventure! We visited this beautiful attraction on a weekend away. We did the adventure trail which was a fun, at times a little scary, adventure. Our guide Alex was outstanding. She was there to guide us through some of the more challenging parts of the adventure trail. My husband is 65 and I am 62 and we had no problem completing the course however we are both very active in our normal lives. The views are incredible. The boat float was fun and rim trail back from the boat float had beautiful views of the chasm. There are several choices of activities based on your comfort level at the chasm. Hope to be back again to do it all over!

So much fun!! There is a lot of stuff to do, whether you want to hike on land, go tubing in the water, or go over bridges in the air on the Adventure Trail. The guides are knowledgeable about the chasm and share a lot of interesting info. It's a great place to go for a weekend with family and friends and explore all the activities it has to offer. The cafe doesn't have a ton of options, so I recommend bringing snacks with you and enjoying local food options in the area.

Awesome natural wonder! We stopped by in April so the attraction wasn’t fully open. We did the hike and it was amazing. Very cool how you can take a trail down onto the chasm and walk inside it. There seemed to be a lot more to do in season but just the hike itself was really cool. Definitely worth the trip!!

This is a great place to visit if your teaching your kids about science- rock layers, rock types, weathering- and also just if you enjoy waterways and waterfalls. We enjoyed the adventure trail, climbing the Chasm and rafting through it! It's a great little adventure for an afternoon! Beautiful scenery all around you and so many ways to enjoy it. The river walk, rafting, tubbing, climbing, the rim trail, you decide! Highly recommended!

Fantastic natural wonder! The hiking trails were in great shape and provided outstanding views of the falls and chasm. There are about five miles of hiking trails, most of which are near the chasm. The hiking trails are well maintained. Many different viewpoints along the trails. Trails are well marked and easy to follow. Gift shop was nice with fairly reasonably priced items. Come early if you want to beat the crowds. Rafting trips were popular with many people on them. You can do both hiking and rafting if you want or just one or the other. Hiking only price was reasonable. Campgrounds and restaurant were also on or near the property.
