Local tips
- Wear appropriate footwear for the hike to the waterfall, as the trail can be uneven and rocky.
- Bring swimwear and a towel if you plan to take a dip in the waterfall's pool, but be prepared for very cold water.
- Consider visiting during the shoulder season (spring or fall) to avoid the summer crowds and enjoy milder temperatures.
- Pack water and snacks, as there are limited facilities available near the waterfall.
- Check the bus schedule in advance if using public transport, as services can be infrequent, especially outside of peak season.
