Nongriat is thousands of steps, down and back

The situation
The path from Tyrna to the double-decker root bridge at Nongriat is a long staircase into the valley, with thousands of uneven steps and some suspension bridges. Going down is the easy half.
The lesson
Start early, take your time, and save energy for the climb back.
Advice for future travellers
Staying overnight in Nongriat village makes it a much gentler trip.
