This is extremely popular waterfall in Bali lies at Tegenungan village approximately 5 KM South East Ubud. Bali has a selection of waterfalls that are fun to visit. For plentiful sightseers the idea of hiking through the jungle to a hidden waterfall and taking a cooling swim is the image of paradise. Therefore such places definitely exist and waterfalls are sharp drops along the course of a river. You will often have to hike up or down a river for a firm way to get to a waterfall, and alongside the river offers a route for you to follow. In the west seasons, rivers flow is at their best, during that time you can expect waterfalls to be pumping and the pools at the bottom to be at their deepest. But make sure, you can expect more debris including rocks and the occasional log to come over the waterfall. 

However, wet season means cloudy days in the highlands particularly and after getting a soaking from the rain, the cold mountain water can be quite a shock. Bathing in a waterfall during the wet season may not feel like tropical ecstasy at first. However during the dry season the weather is much better, sunny and dry. Though water flow is way less and pools will be shallow the waterfall itself is not really that high. If you come to Bali and you don’t know about Bali’s attraction, then Tegenungan waterfall is real place for natural scenery, which is quite beautiful, with green trees and several shower baths from natural springs. The local inhabitants often take bath and get water for daily consumption, particularly in the morning and afternoon.

Sunwapta Falls Canada

Sunwapta Falls is a waterfall of the Sunwapta River located in Jasper National Park, Canada. Sunwapta is a Stoney word, which means “turbulent river”.  Sunwapta waterfall is most spectacular in the late spring when the water flow is at its peak. The water actually originates from the Athabasca Glacier, and massive volumes are high in early summer caused by glacial meltdown. Sunwapta falls is accessible via a short drive off the Ice fields Parkway that connects Jasper and Banff National Parks. The falls have a lovely drop of around 18.5 metres. Moreover; there’re actually two falls, one is a lower and an upper one. Normally majority of tourist sees the upper falls which access is relevant easy. The lower falls are a short distance away.

At the falls, the Sunwapta River suddenly changes course from northwest to southwest and plunges in a cloud of spray into a deep canyon. This is a picnic spot, and seasonal accommodation and dining are available, as are picnic sites. A frozen wonder in winter, Sunwapta Falls will delight photographers with its eerie "ice sculptures". Sunwapta Falls was another one of those waterfalls which is same to Athabasca falls. Furthermore, the walkways and viewing areas didn’t as extensive as that of Athabasca Falls, but it’s pretty much safe views that could possibly get in less than 15 minutes from the car park.

The Sunwapta falls is really marvelous place and there’s nothing like that gorgeous turquoise water. Sunwapta falls is a famous and frequently photographed waterfall on Sunwapta River. The gorgeous glacial waters of river are dividing around a treed island. Wet black limestone spire sticks out of the face of the falls, and falls burst out of a constricted gorge into a potent milky plunge.

Athabasca Falls, Jasper National Park in Alberta Canada

Athabasca Falls is a waterfall in Jasper National Park on the upper Athabasca River, approximately 30 kilometers south of the town site of Jasper, Alberta, Canada, and just west of the Ice fields Parkway. An influential, attractive waterfall, because Athabasca Falls is not recognized so much for the height of the falls (23 metres), as it is recognized for its force due to the large quantity of water falling into the gorge. However even on a cold morning, when river levels tend to be at their lowest point, copious amounts of water flow over the falls. The river 'falls' over a layer of hard quartzite and through the softer limestone below carving the short gorge and a number of potholes. 

The falls can be securely watched and snapped from numerous viewing platforms and walking trails around the falls. The rocks near the brink of the falls may look tempting you, but they can be deadly slippery, as many an unlucky soul has realized only too late. So it is highly suggested don't become an Athabasca Falls statistic. Over the years the waterfall has moved back and forth in its search for the path of least resistance, cutting and abandoning channels as it goes. One such channel has been established with stairs and trail for easy exploration. It also gives you to access to viewpoints at the bottom of the main canyon and to the river bank beyond.

Therefore access is from the adjacent parking lot, which leads off Highway 93A just northeast of the falls. Highway 93A takes off from the close Ice fields Parkway, and crosses the falls on the way north to the town of Jasper. White water rafting often starts below the falls to travel downstream on the Athabasca River to Jasper. Athabasca Falls is not the highest or the widest waterfall in the Canadian Rockies but it is the most powerful. Athabasca falls is one of major tourists sight, and extremely busy in midsummer days. If you want to avoid from rush, then you do the visit on early morning, or after dinner time. Hence maximum trail system is well paved but stairs limit access for people in wheelchairs. Without any doubt, this is wonderful picnic spot, with lot of picnic tables, kitchen shelter and washrooms. 

It is a Class five waterfall, with a drop of 80 feet and a width of 60 feet. It is observed that majority of folks who visit Athabasca falls do not give it sufficient time. They just rush to the falls, take a photograph and they’re gone. Why not poke around? Give some more time to explore the zone looking for signs of abandoned waterfalls and other water worn rock. Stand in the spray at the closest viewpoint, or just hang out and enjoy the view.

Cascade l'éventail Waterfall France

L'Eventail is one of the two largest Herisson Waterfalls. It is also called Les Cascades du Herisson (The Hérisson Waterfalls or Waterfalls of the Hérisson; also Les Cascades de Hérisson with one less definite article) was possibly the one waterfall excursion in France that made us must see waterfalls in our sleep. That was because the Herisson Valley harbored at least seven significant waterfalls on the Herisson River (at least three of them were major high-volume waterfalls of over 35m) plus we noticed a few side cascades and waterfalls draining into the river itself. A path (leaving from Doucier, further west) leads to the foot of the Cascade de l'Eventail, from where there is the best view. The path then leads very steeply uphill to the top of the waterfall.

The Herisson River was sourced by Lake Bonlieu and the Ilay Lakes so the waterfalls were said to flow year-round. Actually, this site was well-thought-out a heritage site in France due to its history of human habitation as well as its scenic attraction. This beautiful waterfall series was the main picturesque attraction in the Jura department of the Franche-Comté region an area that was also recognized as le pays qui respire or the country that breathes (suggesting you can relax and have room to breathe here). Surely, after partaking in our own self-guided hike while breathing in the cool and misty mountain air, it certainly felt like we were in a very distant part of the country.
