As there had been rain the night before we arrived the trek was quite difficult and muddy. The 2 local lads who were our guides did a good job assisiting us over the muddy slippery path but one lady fell and broke her wrist on the walk out. This is not a nature walk and a fair level of fitness is required. The scenery is beautiful and the boys pointed out significant plants to us. The swim in the cool mountain water was worth the trek.
An absolutely amazing day! You could not possibly have a more genuine, authentic and comprehensive introduction to Fiji. 4 of us were picked up at the cruise dock by the owner of this small company, and taken inland to meet our host and waterfall guid at his house in a remote village. From there, it was about a 45 minute hike through the rainforest to the waterfall. There was narration throughout with plant and animal identification. The trail was uphill all the way, and because it had been raining, it was muddy and slippery - just what you would expect in the jungle. Swimming in, under, and around the waterfall was fantastic especially since there was just 4 of us. We swam about 45 minutes and then hiked back down. Our guide then invited us into his home, where we did the Kava ceremony and then shared a delicious lunch prepared by his wife. It was a great example of how eco-tourism can provide the income for a family to allow them to stay in their ancestral home and maintain their way of life in a changing world. Highly recommended.
