Babinda Falls: not for the faint-hearted, but definitely worth it.
This wasn’t the kind of hike where you simply follow a neat little track, admire the waterfall and walk back to the car.
There was scrambling over huge boulders, crossing flowing water, climbing around rocks and occasionally looking at the route ahead and thinking, How exactly are we supposed to get through there? 
But that is also what makes places like this special.
Some of the most beautiful spots are hidden beyond the easy tracks — places you only get to see after a bit of effort, teamwork and willingness to look completely undignified while negotiating a boulder. 
And then you arrive at this.
Suddenly all the scrambling makes sense.
Not for the faint-hearted, but well worth it.
