Municipio: Catemaco, Veracruz
Location: slopes of Santa Marta Volcano, near Miguel Hidalgo
Type: touristic waterfalls
Fees: none, but best to use a guide from Miguel Hidalgo, 50 pesos and up
Services: nearby ecotouristic facility catering mostly to groups
Access: paved from Catemaco to Tebanca, then dirt to Escaceba turnoff, uphill towards Miguel Hidalgo
This was the day we all learned to fly. (Well, almost all)
This gorgeous waterfall and its refreshing pools enamored all of us. These are dry season photos. With a
little rain, the site is even more beautiful.
Unfortunately the trail there is designed for mountain goats. From the pueblo Miguel Hidalgo, the path is
downhill about 20 minutes, terminating in a nasty 50 meter drop.
Alternatively, from the main road, 10 minutes before the pueblo, a driveable dirt road, with many cattle
gates, leads to the river below the falls. From there a nasty 5 minute stumble leads to the fall.
