This route has a physical difficulty of level 6 or 8 depending on our difficulty classification metric, depending on how you do it. This implies that the ascent has between 1,000 and 1,200 meters of unevenness (considering that you only climb on foot on the ascent to the waterfall); if you are going to venture the entire route on foot, add another +400 m. This would increase the level of difficulty to this route to level 8. Consider that there are 5 km of ascent and 5 km of descent one way only, so the return will be the same and the route is 20 km in total.
