RIO SECO WATERFALL
LOCATION: North
Eastern Range
Driving along
the eastern coast heading Toco, our journey starts not far from the village of
Salybia on the North East Coast, just pass the Salybia Bridge. A 1 hour walk
through the attractive Mora forest carries us to a beautiful waterfall with its
deep, striking emerald green pool. This waterfall is one or the finest for swimming,
for a non-swimmer you will have to be very careful, for one step from the bank
and you are in over 7 feet deep of water. The deepest point in the pool is
approximately 30 feet deep. The Spanish name for Rio Seco is dry river bed and
with such a continuous supply of water the name seems ironic.
For the more
adventurous ones an attractive, moderately difficult trail leads us back to the
Seco River, walking up this interesting river until we reach the Sulfur Spring.
The stones here are white and the water has a distinctive sulfurous smell. A truly
amazing sight.
A DAY SURELY TO REMEMBER.
Looks like a great place to visit, maybe next time I come to Trinidad I'll go.
