The hike is deceivingly east to start. But the part that actually gets you to the views is hard and to see the bridge was crowded. We tried to take a different trail back to our car but went the wrong way and had to wade through a river above our knees. Makes for a good story though

The bridge is really cool and a great place to take pictures. The route is very busy though with lines are the top.
