It is a walk of about an hour and a half, through a rustic path, that has an extension of two kilometers, in total there are 4 kilometers of medium difficulty where it is easy to observe large numbers of birds, for this reason it is one of the most visited sites for bird photography in Costa Rica. There is no entrance fee and it is forbidden to picnic and camp.

With a little luck, during the journey, you will be able to observe the majestic quetzal, the sacred bird and one of the most beautiful in the world.

The sound of the waterfall can be heard a hundred meters before arriving. The final stretch of the route requires crossing a beautiful hammock bridge that goes into the mountain and a descent through a muddy passage that leads to the base of the waterfall.
