Waterfall experiences.
Rainforest cascades.
Walk through lush forest to cascading waterfalls and clear natural pools, on guided outings for every level, close to Hotel Rivel.
Follow the sound
of falling water.
Few places feel as alive as a rainforest waterfall. The walk in is half the pleasure, through birdsong, tall trees and the cool air that builds as you near the water. At the falls, the group can pause, swim, photograph and simply enjoy being outside together.
- Fed by mountain rain
- Rain on the surrounding mountains feeds the streams and falls around the estate.
- Natural swimming pools
- ASSUMPTION: confirm which falls have safe swimming and how far they are from the estate.
- Wildlife along the trail
- Look for birds, butterflies and tropical plants as you walk.
Our guides know the trails and the water. They set a comfortable pace, check conditions and share the story of the land along the way.
Waterfall outings can be added to any group program. Ask us when you request a proposal.

Waterfall questions.
ASSUMPTION: confirm trail length, elevation and terrain. We can offer shorter, easier routes for mixed groups.
Where conditions are safe, yes. Swimming depends on water level and weather, and guides decide on the day.
Closed shoes with good grip, quick-dry clothing, a swimsuit, a towel and a light rain layer. Bring water, sun protection and insect repellent.
ASSUMPTION: confirm age and mobility guidance. Easier viewpoint options are available for guests who prefer a gentler outing.
Rainforest weather changes quickly, and trails and rivers can become unsafe. Guides may change the route or reschedule, and we plan alternatives around your program.
Yes. It works well as a wellness walk, a team activity or a celebration. Request a proposal and we will build it in.
