  • By Palomino922
    These are rather wide falls with rocks that have been smoothed out for eons of years. If you are driving by--you must stop. Easy walkway.  more »
  • By travelR321
    easy to see while driving as long as you can slow down enough; roll the windows down and you can hear it; too many other things to see to stop here in my opinion  more »

    Very big and easy to reach waterfall. You just stop by and by a few meters walking, you can see it. You can also have a broad view to the whole valleys after the waterfall. Easy and short photo point before you going to other places.
