The hike to Sari-Sari Waterfall is not as rigorous as it is unnerving. After an easy hike to the water, trekkers must make at least half of the hike through the river itself, negotiating boulders and rocks, cascades and pools. Because it is a precarious and unpredictable hike, following the benevolent cairns constructed by previous hikers to show the way, it is probably wise to hire a guide. Hiking during or after heavy rain increases the unpredictability of the river due to frequent and dangerous flash flooding, which has caused deaths in the past. The waterfall is gorgeous and well worth the effort, but trekkers shouldn’t expect to see a pool at the bottom of the waterfall; there isn’t one.
