Fecha de Barjas Waterfall (Tahiti)

Highlight • Waterfall

Very nice waterfall with Badegumpen and bathing facilities. When descending, you should wear sturdy shoes if possible, as the descent is a bit steep in places, but it's really manageable. You will be rewarded with a totally great view and if you feel like swimming, it is a wonderful cooling off in the fresh water. A crackling waterfall shower is free! Just great.
The descent on the bridge side coming from Ermida only goes to the top of the waterfall, where there are also bathing pools.
On the way down on the other side of the bridge you walk a little longer, but all the way down where you can really swim.
Have fun!

Tahiti Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

Fantastic pools with waterfalls over 4 levels that are easy to reach with a bit of scrambling. Sturdy shoes with good soles are highly recommended. There are enough parking spaces on the street or in a paid parking lot. There are actually enough berths 😉

Varzeas Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

Impressive waterfalls with several pools, accessible with a bit of climbing. Some climbing aids have been anchored into the rock. However, since the waterfall is located near a road, you're rarely alone here. And there have been fatalities here, as the climb down to the lagoons is not without its dangers.
