Waterfall Walk
Just meters from the lodge, paths diverge into
the forest. Pick your way under the shade of
dappled, native ferns that tower above and the
golden browns, oranges and yellows of the
canopy, with luscious, textured mosses
underfoot. The rich, earthy smell fills the air,
and then stepping over streams, you arrive at
the waterfall…to be up close and personal with
such a force and power, with the soothing
healing rejuvenating waters at one’s feet, is
indeed humbling. |
