A beautiful waterfall. You can walk behind the cascading water on a narrow path, which is a unique experience. It's definitely manageable for younger children. It's advisable to bring jackets, as you will get a little wet. The trail is approximately 5.5 km (round trip). The path is easy and suitable for young children. Only the very end becomes a bit steep and slippery, but it's still manageable if you're careful. There's an elevation gain of almost 200 meters, so don't underestimate it.

Really cool water fall and you get the walk behind the actual water. Its quite a walk from the carpark although not steep. If you want to go behind the waterfall theres a lot of steps to get down to the bottom.
