Hardcore Trekking at Tiger Cave Falls
(1 Day)
The waterfall is located in Xuan Tho commune, Da Lat city,
in National Road 20. Take a turning at the km-post No.13 and keep going around
2,7 km, you will see the waterfall.
In 1950, the place was a deep forest with plenty of wild
animals, of which the fiercest animals are tigers “Lords of forest”. There was
a big tiger which often lived in a cave close to the fall. At that time a local
hunter tried to kill the tiger, but it didn’t die, it just got injured in one
leg so it became fiercer and fiercer, screaming destroying the surrounding area
and then it went away from the cave. Since then, people gave the name Tiger to
the waterfall. At the flower garden of the site, tourists can see a big statue
of a tiger and a family of tiger around a big mushroom. We can also see a
statue of a brave man in a proud posture which reminds us of the then hunter.
The waterfall has 25 m in height and 10m in width. At the
foot of the waterfall, the flow of water falls down strongly, making the dense
mist covering the area. The white water then follows the rocks and flows into
the primitive forest.
