Here you will find a small waterfall. Unfortunately, the rain hasn't really been there in the last few days, so there hasn't been any water. Maybe you have better luck

Cute little waterfall. The path ends here. There is a bench there though, and if there isn't too much noise on the nearby road it's quite an idyllic spot.

If it has rained, it certainly looks great. In the dry season, you can only imagine it.

Certainly interesting to look at when it rains. In the dry season it's just a gutter...
