Waterfall Hike and Natural Pools

A jungle trail, a hundred-foot fall and cold pools you can actually swim in.

Overview

An hour or two out of the city, the mountains fold into canyons full of water. We use the falls that are worth the drive, with real trails rather than scrambles, and guides who know the pools deep enough to swim.

It is the best antidote to a heavy night. Cold water, no phone signal, lunch at a roadside spot on the way home.
