Fautaua Waterfall
Parim aeg külastamiseks
Early morning, before the heat peaks and trail traffic picks up. After heavy rain the flow swells dramatically, so a day or two following a storm gives the fullest show.
Eelarvenõuanded
Entry is free, but a local guide costs around 2,000-3,000 XPF per person and is strongly recommended for the trickier upper sections. Bring your own water and snacks since nothing is sold along the trail, and a small tip for a registered guide is customary.
Soovitatav
Adventure hikers, Nature lovers, Photography enthusiasts, Solo travelers

Teave
Kiired faktid: Juga langeb umbes 300 meetrit kolmes astmes, muutes selle üheks kõrgeimaks joaks saarel. Ületad üheksa silda ja järgid Fautaua jõge läbi lopsakate oruseinte, et jõuda põhjabasseini.
Esiletõstmised: Viimane juga kõmiseb musta vulkaanilise kivimi looduslikku amfiteatrisse, niisutades õhku jaheda uduga, mis loob vikerkaari, kui keskpäevapäike läbi võrastiku paistab. Kohalikud ütlevad, et bassein on piisavalt sügav ujumiseks ka pärast kuivi nädalaid, tänu maa-alustele allikatele, mis seda aastaringselt toidavad.
Sisekujunduse nõuanded
- Wear sturdy hiking sandals or trail shoes with grip, since several rocky crossings get slick with moss
- Stop at the second bridge for the widest view of all three tiers in a single frame
- Skip the last scramble if the river is running high, the pool area floods quickly after storms
- Start before 8 a.m. to beat the tour groups that arrive mid-morning
