Overall, I did not find the trail to be too hard, though there were people who were stopped taking breaks along the trial. They have warnings posted at the beginning of the trail, to be careful, and to wear proper footwear. However, if you are in shape and used to hiking, I do not think there is much that is different about this trail. I do think the trail could be a bit dangerous in spots if it is very muddy, which the warning says.
There were a lot of people on the trail, do not expect being alone near the waterfalls. There are too many people walking around with tripods with their cameras that insist on walking as close to the falls to get their pictures. However, it is definitely worth going out of your way to visit.
