Cile: Laja Waterfall, a spectacular cascade

Laja Waterfall is a spectacular cascade formed by the abundant waters of the Laja River. The river flows into a deep rocky canyon that has been drilled into by these raging rapids. It is said that this was a cult place where the old Mapuches would come and meditate, while the younger men should go through passing rites. During the Spanish colonization this was a battle area and a natural limit. You can get to its four waterfalls through boardwalks installed there for tourists.
