Okay so I am a solo traveller, the guides told me that it's 100bob per person but that I would likely have to pay 600 to cover a six person group.
I decided to get myself into the gorge near the town and walk along the riverbed to try and get there myself. I ended up going a bit too far and coming to an impass with big waterfall and canyon drops.
I went back and scrambled out though and got along the path and down the steps to the waterfall.
This is what I would do: walk along riverbed until you get to the cave paintings marked on maps.me "pinturas rupestres". then keep going and take the second marked path out on the right. it's actually just a dry riverbed with a short scramble to get onto it. then follow the path marked on maps.me which is on the edge of the canyon (I saw nobody on my way there or back on this path, I think most guided groups drive straight to the end). Then it's just a matter of timing it right and getting a bit lucky with heading down the stairs. I set out just before 9am so think I was lucky as I didn't see groups on the way down, only on the way up.
This might get removed by moderators, I understand it's good to support the community but when it's around £72 for a guided hike that's too much for me. If you're in a group just split the cost 👍

Best to buy the ticket at the office first and ask where you are allowed to go with / without a guide!
I got in a little bit of trouble on another trail. Finally I only had to pay the park entrance fee and fuel for the guy who "caught" me. But they threatened me with jail and big fines at first....
