Price now 20k per person for entry. (Not just a gringo price, other people with Colombian plates were being charged the same.)
Camping no longer allowed for any price. Connected us with camp spot up the road.
About the hike itself, steep hike with beautiful views. Great workout. 30 mins up to top of waterfall. Neat micro climate along stream above the waterfall. Carry on another 40 minutes uphill to Mirador, 360 view of this beautiful landscape. Total only 2km but 400m elevation gain!
Pretty expensive for a hike, but the views were good! Beers at the bottom were cheap at least...
Report Check-InVery nice hike up the waterfall. You will get numerous great photos of it on the hike. There is a 5 min walk to a swimming hole, and a 45min hike to the top, and another 30min walk to a viewpoint. The fee is still 10k pp to visit the falls and go for the hike, which it totally worth it. They wanted 25k pp to spend the night now (on top of the 10k), so we moved on for the night, unfortunately. If you don't mind the price, it would be a nice place to spend the night. They prepare food for lunch, bathroom, and shower.
Report Check-InIt's a fantastic place, ten kilometers from Gámbita by an unpaved road. I went by bicycle and I had to pay 10.000 but the place is great and amazing. You can find good typical food and drinks and you have the option of pit your tend in the top of a titpical bamboo building with hamocs too for 20.000 pesos. This place worth it. Don Chucho 3208362389 maybe you can put your tend in the top of the mountain for free with fantastic views to waterfalls and the Hondura canyon.
Report Check-Inla cascada muy hermosa con unas vistas preciosas. el sendero es muy inclinado y peligroso.
cobran ,10000 COP Las personas de la entrada no son muy amables, en caso de una emergencia no hay logística para los primeros auxilios.
Good place to camp just by the waterfall. owner allows camping and has restroom. Simple kitchen to cook and simple facilities. You can walk to the bottom of the waterfall and takes 5 to 10 minutes and to the top probably 30-40min but worth it.
Report Check-InStunning waterfall. Cost 10k per person just to enter the premises. You can see it pretty good from the road.
