Quebrada Bulava
RIVER
There's a lovely swimming hole at the Quebrada Bulava, a 20-minute walk from town.
Head along the right branch of the fork at the cemetery, take the second right, and you'll
soon reach several spots that make for a nice dip. Continuing on, you'll reach a bridge -
cross it and take the second turnoff on the right.
Here a local named William rents
inner tubes
(US$7) and life jackets, which allow
you to float idly down the river; it eventually merges with Río Santa Maria. He can also
arrange a taxi return.
Cascada de Bermejo
WATERFALL
An excellent half-day road and trail walk (four hours round trip) leads to this tall water-
fall with a delightful swimming hole in the dry season. Follow past William's inner-tube
rentals; after taking the Bulava bridge take your first left to a steep uphill. Here the road
becomes dirt; continue until the waterfall, following yellow arrow signs into the trail.
You can return looping onto the main road (going right leaving the trail and left at
every intersection). In rainy season you should inquire with locals about conditions be-
fore going.
