    Hiking

    Challenging path through the rainforest on the beaten path. 5km each way with steep ascents and descents. Nevertheless, the route is worthwhile. Capuchin monkeys, sloths and much more meet you on the track with luck. 8:00 clock opens the park and as there is also a circular route around the hot geysers and mud holes, the bus from about 10 o'clock. You can also do the latter tour, duration 2 hours and also quite nice on paved paths.

    Hiking

    Walk through the dry forest to the pituresque waterfall, which invites you to picnic.

    Hiking

    It is an unpaved hiking trail, which is still feasible even when it rains. There is a steep section when descending to the waterfall, but the feet find enough support on stones and roots. The waterfall is picturesque, but also well attended and there is no space for many visitors, so leave as early as possible. Bathing is prohibited.
