Taparto Waterfall

Last one in the list of the most beautiful waterfalls in Colombia is Taparto waterfall. The nicest town in all of Colombia, Jardin, is tucked away in the coffee-growing area of the Andes. Jardn is a peaceful colonial town famous for its treks, refreshing waterfalls, and coffee and chocolate. The allure of this village will draw you in even if it is no longer a well-kept secret and is still relatively unknown. While Jardín, Colombia has a lot to offer on its own, there is even more if you only step outside. This is where the stunning Taparto Waterfalls (Chorros de Tapartó), which are still relatively unexplored, come into play. The three-tiered waterfalls reach heights of 35, 60, and 100 meters. The final waterfall is the highest and most magnificent.

It's challenging to reach these falls. You'll need most of the day to finish it as well. After a short drive from Jardn, the trailhead to the waterfalls is followed by an 8-mile (13.5-km) roundtrip climb. The hike is largely flat and moderately easy. The only genuine concern you should have is that you are completely exposed. Therefore, pack plenty of water, sunscreen, and a hat. Additionally, after you get to the falls, you can swim in the water! Although optional, the hardest part is worthwhile. To appreciate the first two levels of the falls, you can scramble some rocks, but to get to the last level, you'll need to scramble rocks, do a little free-hand rock climbing, and really slog through the forest! Although a little chaotic (particularly on the way back down), it is well worthwhile!
