Good experiance if you have a day off diving. Easiet way to get there was for us, just to rent a car for 40 $ with insurance, the cab driver wanted 60 $ to take us there. (4 persons). The have a little "train" going to waterfall, if you dont want to walk. The walk takes around 15-20 mins. On... More

We hiked down but you do have an option of zip lining or monorail. the monorail is really slow and a bit loud and smokey. The falls are amazing and the walk down is interesting. When you are finished and hike back to the parking lot go get a chilled coconut, drink the necto, and then have them cut it... More

This waterfall is great! the hike is not too difficult and I actually stood only in my bikini underneath the fall... What a shower!!! People stood still for a minute but then they tried as well.... so much fun! (I visited Palau in 2010.)

The waterfall was a serene and amazing place when in the past it was a simple trail with a wild rainforest growing over the trail, even the drive was by 4 wheel vehicles only, it was quite an adventure. The waterfall itself is very beautiful and there is a huge swimming hole beneath, there used to be a really nice... More

we rented a car on the first day in Palau and so arrived later than the tours - we hiked down and up the falls and spent time frolicking in the various pools as you walk down to the falls. The waterfall was absolutely gorgeous and the walk great - we were completely alone the two hours we were there!... More

Took about 20min hike down and 30min hike back from the falls, but I would say the journey and the waterfall was worth it! Be careful of the slippery slopes and rocks though, plus Palau's unpredictable weather where it will just rain on you. Grab that walking stickas suggested by the site operator!

Loved the waterfall plus the scenic hike down to it. We did want to try the new zip line but thought it too expensive for the 2 zips that were working ( the longest stretch was closed for repairs). Steep hike back up but we enjoyed it. There is a monorail now if you want to do it the easy... More

Worth the trip and the trek. Scenery from the top of the jungle is breathtaking. River and falls are refreshing with its crystal clear cool water. Would advise visitors to bring/ wear their booties as rocks can get very slippery. And booties are good for wading in the water. Also, the wooden planks leading to the falls themselves are lined...

the hike up was great - a real vast foliage of fauna, plus lots of ruins from Japanese occupation gone by....It is a a bit slippery, so make sure to pick up a walking stick (which is free of charge) at the entrance. The bonus after the walk is the falls - they were so refreshing! The second zipline was... More

On the hike down to the waterfall...we discovered a zip line! Wonderful surprise! The hike down and back up was beautiful...or you can take the monorail for a more relaxed ride. The falls themselves were amazing.
