Thousands of steps, not a verified count
The official tourism guide describes a stone stairway with thousands of steps. We do not publish an exact count or promise a fixed duration. Ask a local guide about the current route and your group's ability.
Budget for the climb back
The descent can disguise the effort needed to return. Agree an early turnaround time, avoid overloaded day plans and keep enough food, water and daylight for the ascent.
A respectful village visit
Check local permission before entering village spaces. Ask before photographing residents, avoid intruding into homes and use a guide who knows the community.
