    Revisited recently, still as beautiful! ____ Wow! The falls should be on the 'must see' list for every visitor and resident alike! The falls can be seen from afar, and once you enter and pay the fee ($2 or $3), it's a relatively easy climb up to the base of the falls. The views can't be beat, and there is supposedly a secondary trail leading up higher, but I wasn't that adventurous that day. It is an incredible experience, not to be missed.

    Gorgeous waterfall! Absolutely amazing. There are many cute little spots to take pictures. They were not active while we visited, but there are also ziplines and a swing that takes you over the pool that the waterfall goes into. This place is not visited very often and so we had it mostly to ourselves, save maybe 6 other people. The pathway to get to the waterfall is well marked and relatively short, maybe 1/4 mile. It is steep and very slippery so be very careful.

    Breathtaking beauty! At least for a guy from the Midwest this waterfall is just plain jaw-dropping. And for the really really NOT faint of heart try the zip line across the canyon and back. The guide told me it’s the second longest zip line in Ecuador and I believe it! Had to be 30-45 seconds going across. But caution! The climb to the second zip line is extremely strenuous if you are used to being at sea level. We had a driver from the south of Cuenca. Our entire trip was about four hours, including the round-trip, hiking up to the lower waterfalls, doing the zip line, and a quick drive through the city of Girón. Go! 😀

    Giron waterfall is a pretty short climb up stairs anyone can do, but if you're up for it physically you should NOT pass on the second waterfall - La Segunda Cascada, it's about 1-2 hours of pretty rapid climb or more if you want to take your time, and some parts are quite steep but well worth the way there, both the waterfall and the view.

    Such a gorgeous place to spend the day. The hike to the second waterfall is pure magic. The vistas other worldly.

    Beautiful water falls it is a steep hike but not very long. Make sure after you stop at the bottom of the falls and get pics keep going up the trail a short distance to get a better view from above. The swing is also free to try if you are adventurous. The local restaurant the last house on the left was very "local" and plain but was good and no one got sick from it.

    If you like feel a nature that is a place. Also you have option to make a canopy, columpio or sport fishing.

    Gorgeous waterfalls. Worth the long hike . The view from every angle was amazing! You could .look d save so mb e time if you catch a ride from the highway, but my husband and I love to walk so we trek up to the entrance. The first waterfall is a short hike up for 2$ .Then we head down and start Cascada || .That was an hour and 1/2 up to the waterfalls. The trail is well marked. You cant get lost!.

    Fun tourist spot. Weather is much colder than the surrounding Yungilla area. Zip lining, bounce house, giant swing. Restaurant and bar.

    Beautiful place, I love the ziplining experience, the waterfalls are amazing, the view is incredible, only bad thing is the little restaurant there did not have too many food options or canelazo.

    The setting for El Churro is magnificent. Surrounded by jungle, it falls majestically into a small pool of water, continuing on as brooks. As in most places that cater to visitors, the paths to and from the waterfall are one way. The walk from the parking to the base of the waterfall is not very steep, but it is a narrow passage through a nature trail. I did see a couple of seniors making their way up to the waterfall. However, on the way back (the one way path) is more steep and challenging. I personally felt that the visiting seniors should be able to take the same way back, just because the other path may be too strenuous for them. That aside, the waterfall is beautiful, we visited in late November, and the water was very cold, but we were told that many people swim or wade in the pool underneath the rushing water when the weather is nice. As foreigners, we had to pay $3 admission fee. We enjoyed our hike through the woods.

    We visited the waterfalls and had lunch after. The view is breathtaking. We stopped to eat at a nearby restaurant. The food was good. Our guide went for a swim at the bottom of the waterfall. I was a bit winded after climbing to the first level, but the second climb was not bad.
