“Excellent experience. We drove our own car, very easy drive and plenty of parking. Gondola and chair lift offer breathtaking views. We did the full hike around all 3 lakes and it took us about 3 1/2 hours. We were there at 9am and there were very few people. A lot of spots we had all to ourselves. Definitely saw a lot more people around 1pm as we were making our way out. Highly recommend.”
