For Hiking
The 2.5 mile trail takes you through rich forest and
involves an uphill hike followed by a long ridge walk and then a steep
downhill. The hike is rated as strenuous and takes approximately 2 ½
hours. The best time to see the power of Habio is during the rainy season when
the water flow is at its fullest. In the rainy season however the trail will be
muddy, increasing the difficulty of the hike. Habio is a spray type waterfall
with the water hitting the black stone backdrop and spraying out in droplets.
The spray and the pounding of the water into the pool at the base makes the
area feel breezy and cool.
