There are walkways and steps from ground level leading all the way up to the lighthouse there are many locals that will jog all the way up to the base of the lighthouse it's definitely not for the faith hearted. I drove up with my son and daughter-in-law and granddaughter was amazingly a beautiful day with lovely blue skies the perfect day to have visited this historical lighthouse was definitely worth the visit.
