Located just over 20 minutes from your zip lining experience is the magical El Pavon waterfall and swimming hole. It is on your route back! &nbsp;Easy access and free parking on the street. It only takes about 2 minutes with a dozen steep steps. Most of the terrain is flat. It is a bit off the beaten path and so the road getting there can be interesting especially during October/November when there is more rain. No 4×4 is needed and road is lovely with a bridge and takes you along the river. What makes this waterfall unique is the two massive rocks on either side of the waterfall, with the smaller rock in the middle. El Pavon waterfall is enchanting and the swimming pool is usually deep enough to swim in year around even in the driest months.
