The falls themselves are gorgeous, and the pool at the base is perfect if you want to wade in and cool off on a warm day.
Beyond just snapping some photos, this is an ideal spot to post up for a while. Bring a hammock and a good book – there are plenty of trees around the area where you can string one up and just enjoy the sound of the water. It’s that perfect combination of beautiful scenery and peaceful vibes.
