What people say
Clément Duguerre
"Walk or drive approximately 0.3 miles (0.5 km) south from Montezuma's downtown to the little bridge that spans the Rio Montezuma. There's a parking lot and path on the right just after the bridge; ₡1000 (about $2) is required for parking. There is no other admission charge. The routes and levels are marked on a sign at the entrance of the Waterfall.
If you're leaving from Santa Teresa, you can get there by 3 methods. Take a bus to Cobano (about every hour), then to Montezuma (6x per day from 5AM45 to 8PM30). You can also take a taxi, which will be the quickest but also most expensive method. Lastly, you could hitchhike, which is what we did with some friends. Hitchhiking is pretty common in the region of Santa Teresa. "
