So, let's start. When you enter about 2km from the main road, you can park at a private residence or drive to where the road ends. If you park by the private car park, this will probably add 20-25mins to the hike. From the starting point of the trail, I would estimate about 40-45 minutes if you take your time. The trail is generally a muddy one at certain parts and takes some maneuvers to avoid fallen trees, etc. If rain falls, expect the trail to be very muddy.

The pool at the water fall is amazingly clear and full of fish. If you throw them bits of bread they will jump out...
