Kariminu

Are you a fan of waterfalls? Then you’ll love the Kariminu trail. It has 3 of them. But accessing them involves going down fairly steep slopes, so make sure you have sturdy hiking boots. Swimming enthusiasts, you don’t want to forget your swimwear at home- the waterfalls are swim-friendly.
