The canyon has steep walls and winding waters. It is 100 m deep and about 2 kilometres long. The canyon was created by progressive erosions of flowing water from glaciers and rocks. A waterfall flows down the west of the canyon, visible from an observation platform at the end of a one-mile hike up the eastern edge. You can safely walk inside the canyon or walk up the path to the edge of the canyon, where you can stand on a viewing platform.
