About this spot

The reward at the end of Batad's toughest trek: a tall waterfall plunging into a wide, icy pool surrounded by cliffs. The hike from the village takes about an hour each way, crossing terrace walls and steep stone stairs, so legs will be burning on the way back. Take a cold dip, rest on the rocks and enjoy the spray before climbing back to your homestay.
