To get to this waterfall from Santa Cruz, you have to find a guide who will take you along a path of exuberant tropical vegetation. 

You can experience the natural beauty on a horseback riding tour or in a walking tour. The adventure includes crossing two old railway tunnels and the reward is to get to an incredible landscape with a beautiful waterfall. 

Along the way, in sections the vegetation becomes very dense and you will have to cross some streams of crystalline water.

Before you reach El Salto, you can visit three smaller waterfalls with heights of 3, 5 and 8 m.

The main waterfall is approximately 30 m high and falls down from basalt columns formation ending on a circular pool below, where you can cool off.
