This half-day of exploring natural wonders with short hikes and visits to overlooks and vistas will have you gasping in awe!
You'll visit a number of waterfalls and overlooks selected by your guide, including the most iconic spots, such as Latourell Falls and depending on weather conditions, a few small hidden waterfalls and another spectacular plunge-style fall with columnar basalt.
