One of the great things about visiting these places after heavy rain is the dramatic transformation you’ll witness.


Waterfalls become powerful cascades, streams turn into rushing rivers, and wet foliage sparkles as the light catches raindrops on leaves.


You might also spot reflections in newly formed pools or hear the calming sound of water flowing through the landscape.

Remember - LeaveNoTrace!


As with anywhere outdoors, kindly keep these areas pristine and wild by taking all trash with you. The amount of complaints we have seen since COVID-19 is crazy. It's really not that hard to take your rubbish with you!


There is a greater chance of litter because the infinity pool is becoming more and more popular and receives more and more visitors. Litter tends to spread, so if you see any and are able to pick it up and dispose of it outside the park, it will help keep the area tidy.
