Itinerary description
This is a trail you should do with a guide that knows the terrain. I can recommend.
I rated as very difficult because the last part to the waterfalls requires use of hands and rope to climb. Very steep and a fall could be serious.
Bring water for the first half. There are various sources in the downhill to Mismaloya river where you can find clear water.
Most probably you won't find anyone in this trail to the jungle vallartensis.

Hey,
We're passionate about doing this trail and are wondering how important a rope and a guide is?! The way until the point where you need a rope is worth going? Or do we miss the best part in this scenario?
Hope to hear from you and thanks for all the trails in the area
