Hiking

The river widens here and the current slows down, so you can step off the stones into the water... a wonderful way to cool off on hot days

Hiking

A pool below a rapid on the way to Rainbow Falls. Swimming is only partially suitable, as the banks are overgrown and the river is very nutrient-rich, especially after rainfall.

Hiking

Even if others see it differently (who are surely here too? ;-) ): Swimming is simply NOT an option at the moment, perhaps due to the time of year and the weather! I think a thumbs down is pretty inappropriate...
