Friday was a holiday here and we were thinking of going camping, but the weather called for occasional showers so we decided to go on a waterfall hike instead. I'd come across this trail on the hiking maps as well as online so when some friends that said they'd gone before said they'd go again, we decided to hit the trail. We left from the village they lived in and walked about 3km to the start of the trail that went up another 3km to about 300m according to this chart. By the time we were headed to the second of three falls, it started raining. The last section up to the main falls was pretty steep - we were like mountain goats - and we would have to go back down the way we went up to get home! The kids were already wet from the rain, so had no qualms having a dunk in the pool. My quads were tired today, but Maggie and I still walked about 4km around town while waiting for Alex to finish his karate class.
