What people say

"Discover this 2.1-mile out-and-back trail near Bajos del Toro, Alajuela. Generally considered a moderately challenging route, it takes an average of 1 h 12 min to complete. This trail is great for hiking, and it's unlikely you'll encounter many other people while exploring. The best times to visit this trail are January through April. The trail begins with a parking lot and then you get directions on how to go along the forest path, which in several sections crosses the Desagüe River to the Tesoro Escondido Waterfall, which has a large natural pool to dive in. The place has bathrooms and a place to buy food (you can also bring your own), so it is possible to spend the day and have a picnic!"
"The hike to this waterfall can be a bit treacherous, particularly during the rainy season (from May until November). But if you’re up for a bit of adventure, you won’t be disappointed when you reach the Tesoro Escondido Waterfall. Getting there requires crossing small streams and steadying yourself on hanging ropes, so you will get a bit of exercise on the way! The water is a magical blue color that is set off by the deep greens of the surrounding jungle. You’ll see beautiful flora and fauna (and maybe even a few cows!)."
"*Requires Hike to Access. Hidden in the cloud forests of the Central Valley, this waterfall offers a serene escape from the crowds. "
