Good road markings and decent facilities. Paying to park was simple. But we experienced multiple days of fog in January where the view was limited. But of the views we did have, it was breathtaking. Full review by nolanc579

Heads up, the lookout costs $10 per a vehicle plus $5 per a person to walk up a set of stairs…. But you can hike for free along the road. Full review by Amie G
