Said to be the second largest in the world, this hot springs lake is a caldron of gray-blue water at a temperature ranging from 180 to 197 degrees Fahrenheit; a full-day rigorous hike with a guide is needed to visit this awesome sight.

This was the best. He is the BEST! We considered ourselves intermediate hikers.. this hike was hard, and satisfying. Nigel made it totally worth it. He was consistently upbeat, encouraging (we needed it) and overall a wonderful and friendly person with a heart of gold. At one point when I wanted to give up he was encouraging and keep me going. He knew exactly what he was doing, was full of information and facts about the local wildlife and foliage, had amazing stories to keep us entertained and answered all our questions! We had a fantastic time hunting the mysterious Agouti, stopping at the streams for a dip, eating eggs cooked in the Valley of Desolation and conversation with Nigel where he thought us all about the multipurpose use of materials you find on the way! Our tour consisted of us and another couple. Not only did he do well with mixing our levels of ability, he is great at interacting with all and keeping our conversation going! We have already talked about returning and when we do we will be hiring Nigel again for all of our guide needs! Our trip would not have been the same without him making it as memorable as he did! Thanks Nigel!

9. Sari-Sari Waterfall

A short hike up the White River, a spectacular waterfall with a swimmable pool at its base.

We were going hiking through the rain forest so we could go swimming under a waterfall, Sari Sari falls. O...........M..........G!!! The description said "extreme" but the ages were 6-65. I'm thinking how extreme could it be if a 6 and 65 year old can do it. After all, we are 50 and 51. Let me tell you, IT WAS EXTREME!!! We were REAL rock climbing. We were climbing in mud, sand and rocks. We were using roots as hand holds and when there were no roots, we used earth. I fell no less than 10 times and Eric fell twice. Others were also falling and one lady had to stop and wait for us to get back. It's a good thing I'm not afraid to get dirty because I got muddy. We climbed up the mountain, down the mountain and crossed the rushing and very rocky river about 8 or 10 times. The end result......nearly brought tears to my eyes. It was SO INCREDIBLY BEAUTIFUL that it made all those falls on my fat butt worth it. Once you got to the falls, you had the option of climbing even more rocks to get to the pool at the bottom of the falls to go swimming. This girl was NOT going to pass that up. Eric opted to sit it out and I went. I am so glad I did. It was AWESOME to do that. On our way back out we took the same path as we took in. Along the way we stopped right there along the river to have some indigenous soup. There was a guy that was cooking it while we were hiking so it was ready when we got back. I don't know what all I ate but it was good. Might I add, our tour guide did the whole excursion BAREFOOT!!! He was running and jumping all over those rocks. He had ninja like skill. Not to mention, he was over 50, so he said. We walked about 1 mile into the rain forest. It seemed like 20. In the end, it was very much worth it to me. I got to check something off my list. Swimming under a waterfall.
10. Titou Gorge

A natural water-ride created by two hot springs, a rock pool and a river.

Don’t let the frigid water keep you from experiencing Titou Gorge. It is absolutely gorgeous and where they filmed Pirates of the Caribbean 2. We booked a tour and our guide provided life jackets and went in with us all the way to the water fall. I jumped in from the edge rather than walking in. It was so much fun!
