Book your place on one of these Epic Trips to discover the world’s most spectacular waterfalls.
From glistening ice formations in Iceland to thundering cascades in the cloud forests of Ecuador, it’s fair to say that waterfalls are an awesome sight, no matter how many times you look. Whether you fancy swimming beneath, rappelling across or even skirting behind them, they’re always worth a hike. To that end, these small-group adventures, bookable with Culture Trip, will walk you up close and personal to some of the world’s most beautiful waterfalls.
Visit Pailón del Diablo and go cycling, hiking and whitewater rafting in Ecuador
Dotted along the highway between Baños and Puyo, where the Ecuadorian Andes blend into the Amazon rainforest, you’ll find a series of waterfalls tumbling into the jungle-lined Río Pastaza canyon. Bring your hiking boots and explore on foot, or hop on a bike and cycle all the way to the mighty 80m (260ft) Pailón del Diablo – one of the highlights of Culture Trip’s eight-day Ecuador adventure. You’ll get wet, but the swirling spray is a wonderful tonic for the sticky, tropical heat.
