Caburní Waterfall — Attraction in Trinidad

This 1 star is not for the nature, which is beautiful, but for the lack of information surrounded prior to this excursion. We were told it was a trail that takes 1hr to get to the waterfall and 1 hr to get back. It is not a trail by uk understanding, it it a challenging hike. If you are fit and able and like an off road hike you will most likely love this. For the average person this is a steep decline with no facilities. The path is obvious but it is not cleared for the masses eg no smooth path, no rails. It includes a lot of rocky places that almost require bum shuffling down and anyone with any weak ankles, bad shoes etc. should not attempt this. We spent 1hr20 going down and still hadn't found the waterfall, we passed only 1 person on route, at this time we turned back knowing that we had the journey back up to make. We probably should have turned back sooner but the lure that the waterfall may be near keeps you going. The journey back was hard as it was getting hotter. We passed another couple who had given up and turned back and were suffering. We passed a man who's wife had twisted her ankle on the way back up (and they looked athletic). I don't know how she got back up as its not easily accessible for help. (He had found help, we didn't leave him to it!!) The drive up the mountain and the walk in the forest itself was beautiful and a different side of cuba, so if you like a hike then go for it. But if you're not a strong hiker please just be aware this isn't a typical tourist excursion, its hard, there arent facilities or many people (and probably no phone signal) and you need good shoes and a...

I am 56 year old traveller and we were not notified of the hike in front of us. The taxi driver brought us to the site and did not tell us any information regards the access to the waterfall. We were charges 10cucs each. I don't know what this charge was for because there were no facilities at all. No signs. The treck was through a dense jungle with no trail. It was posted that it would take 45 minutes to complete. It took me 90 minutes there and 90 minutes back. I do not recommend this treck unless you are fit and agile. We saw snakes on the trail. I was really concerned that if we were stuck then there would be no...
