This was a very fun change of pace and much needed change of scenery
Hike to the God’s bridge is moderately challenging but a great hike to do
Akchor waterfall was good but don’t expect it to be anything earth shattering, depending on what other waterfalls you visited. It was a great adventure and I am glad we went.
Some negatives - I wish areas was cleaner and more taken care of, sad to see national park and trash around. Read more

Tips for future travelers

Bring refillable water bottle, plenty of areas with spring water to get a refill Wear clothes that you aren’t afraid to get dirty, plenty of mud during the hike Wear layers - depending on when you are visiting it might be chilly at the beginning of the hike and then gets warmer so be able to take layers off to feel comfortable
