FAQ

Frequently asked questions about waterfalls in Ecuador

Which waterfalls in Ecuador are worth seeing?
For example: DUENDE VAGO, Cascada El Kilo, Gran Cañón de Cotundo and Cascada de Chalata. All waterfalls of the country are in the list above and on the map.
When is the best time to visit waterfalls?
Waterfalls are fullest in spring, during snowmelt, and after heavy rain. Many run low in summer, and small ones freeze in winter — beautiful too, but the trails to them can be slippery.
Can you swim at a waterfall?
Only where it is allowed and safe: under the fall and at its base there are currents and rocks, and the water is cold even in summer. Keep away from the edge and do not climb wet rocks.
How do I get to a waterfall?
Open the waterfall on the map — the point has a route button. Some falls can only be reached on foot: check the trail length and where to leave the car.
