Note, this is not the trail head. Ensure you follow gps to trailhead as this will lead you to the middle of a very narrow bumpy road

A wonderful waterfall. The path is very well maintained and you get some very interesting information about flora and fauna. You should take water shoes with you. There is also a very nice cafe/bar on site.

Just wowuaaaawwww...Beautiful. Easy access after a short walk of 15 minutes max (which crosses the river 3 times, so remember to wear shoes). Access 10EC per person. Small parking lot at the end of the (bad) road.
