Nuestro guía fue el mejor del mundo y contesto todas nuestras dudas. Nos permitió parar a tomar fotos y nos dio mucha información.Our guide was the best in the world and answered all our questions. It allowed us to stop for pictures and gave us lots of information.
We rented bikes and followed the route out of town and along the Calle de Cascades. It's unfortunate that you must share the road with trucks and tankers, but there are plenty of places to pull over and watch the many waterfalls. We ended at Cascade de Diablo and took the hike down. It was worth the entire trip. What a powerful waterfall. Since the trip is mostly downhill, the return is made easy by taking a truck back for $2.
We saw several cascades/waterfalls each of which was lovely, the area is well looked after and well presented. A really pleasant morning, even in the rain!
This is a must do in Banos, you can hire a taxi and work out the price or do a tour in one of the open buses. I have done both and it depends on what you like. The bus tour is a very bumpy ride at high speed at times and they play very loud music but I found this to be very entertaining and part of the experience. They stop at different spots along the way for pictures and you can zip line or do the other activities, we did not but plenty in my group did and enjoyed it. Getting on and off the bus was a little bit challenging, so if you have a bad back or problems with legs, think twice. I found the views of the water falls where amazing
excellent stretch of road. The falls/cascades were beautiful and we took cable cars to some and walked down to the best one Devil's Cauldron. A must see when in Banos.
ruta de la cascadas is a very picturesque and suggestive road that you have to enjoy it if you come in banos area. it's worth
The hole route is a great way to spend a day on the bike enjoying Banos area and the great waterfalls. Do your self a favor and don't rush it I wish I had the time to do the route twice. My favorite was The Paílón del Diablo Waterfall ( English “Cauldron of the Devil”.) you can view Diablo from the top and from the bottom both entrance fees are $1.50 per person well worth the $3.00 If you only have time to go to one falls do The Paílón del Diablo you can take a bus or cab to the town of Rio Verde named after the Rio Verde( river green). The Rio Verde is the river that feeds The Paílón del Diablo Waterfall.
Beautiful with great hiking. Features one of the largest waterfalls in the world. Many things to do along the way like zip lining, riding trolleys, swinging over the edge of the mountain, and repelling down waterfalls.
You must see, but please .... do not do it by bus (it's noisy)! Rent a bike in the downtown... the route is easy and you can stop whenever you want. Dense green vegetation, few waterfalls and the most amazing one in the end, of course: El Diablo! PS: do not worry about the way back, there is a "truck" you can take with your bike to go back to Banos!If you like canopying you will find some options on the way down!
