After
leaving the old farm dwelling, a fairly steep descent is encountered
into the valley. Small buck may be seen here provided hikers walk quietly,
so as not to disturb them.
Leaving
the valley, the trail follows a river to a relatively deep pool near
the border fence with a neighbouring farm. This is a good place to
stop for lunch and a swim.
Upon
leaving the river, a fairly steep climb brings the hiker to a fence
surrounding the ancient ruins with a sign entitled the “Chariot
Temple of the Dying Sun”.
The
fence is crossed by means of a couple of rocks that have been placed
on either side to facilitate entry to the ruins.
