Cascada de San Ramon
While we decided not to climb Ometepe's other volcano, Maderas, we did head about halfway up its slopes to the beautiful waterfalls called the Cascada de San Ramon. These waterfalls are fed by the abundant flows that saturate Maderas, filling its crater with water and creating springs around its slopes. The waterfall in question is a thin, sinewy stream that plunges some 40 meters over the edge of cliff and creates a small, pleasant pool at the bottom. The walk to get there is quite nice, with lots of birds, butterflies and other wildlife. Once arriving, we of course plunged in to the refreshing pool, although Venla naturally spent more time in the water than I.
To be honest, there is not a whole lot more to say about the falls, other than enjoy the pictures!
