Itinerary description

Coming down the mountain from fountain Didier we found lots of cars parking close to a narrow trail descinding into the valley. People told us, it's a wonderful but difficult hike and climb to a wonderful waterfall. The called it "deux cascade". It is really difficult. After 5 Minutes you need to cross a tunnel (for big waterpipes, slippery,), our mobile flashllights were enough, but without impossible. Good ballance mandatory.
Then you follow up the river, very often through the river. At the end (after 70 minutes) you are rewarded with a wonderful tropically surrounded waterfall with the possibiliy to swim. Really rewarding.
Again: You need to climb!!
Sorry, I recorded only oneway from the waterfall back.
