About: This is one of the many private properties in the Bajos del Toro region that has trails leading to spectacular waterfalls. In particular, they offer 6 waterfalls as well as natural pools that you can swim in. Beware, the water is very cold! They have a restaurant where you can enjoy lunch. You can also bring your own food to enjoy while sitting at one of the waterfalls. They are very organized and there is plenty of detailed information on their website. They are the same owners as the property across the street, Catarata del Toro, which offers a moderate hike to a single large waterfall. If you start early you can have enough time to do both. It is best to start with Catarata del Toro and then do this one, as this one you can swim in and the other you cannot.
