The visit is really worthwhile. It does not require any special equipment except sunscreen, sunglasses and lots of water.
(As of 05/2018) - The journey from Palenque is easily possible by car, colectivo or bike, of course it is also on foot. The entrance fee is divided into two parts, 34 pesos are paid at the entrance to the park, another 70 pesos for the entrance to the ruins (per adult). The ruin is open from 08:00 to 17:00 o'clock, early appearance secures as always the best places (say, there is hardly anyone there and the sun is not burning quite so strongly). In the area of ​​the parking lot you will find everything you need in terms of amenities (food, drinks, souvenirs, toilets), on the premises itself you will find at the entrance to the waterfall another toilet.
