“100% a must do. We got the first appointment time of the day which was great to see the sunrise and beat everyone else up to the top. I felt super winded and tired while climbing. It is a tough climb with lots of stairs and tight spaces but the view makes up for it. If you get stuck behind someone slow you’ll be in a cramped space for a long time.”
