Awao Falls 2 and 3

Awao Falls 2 and 3 are two separate waterfall cascades in Santa Josefa that drop into natural pools one after another. Each tier has its own swimming basin, with the water flowing through forest vegetation between the two levels.

The waterfalls have remained in their natural state within the Santa Josefa region for generations. The area has retained its original environment despite growing development in the surrounding region.

The waterfalls serve as a gathering place where local families come to swim and spend time together in nature. People use the area regularly for recreation and social gatherings throughout the year.

The waterfalls are accessible daily and can be reached using local transportation from Santa Josefa's center. The quieter hours early in the morning or late afternoon offer the most comfortable visit.

Each waterfall has its own natural basin, creating separate swimming areas with different depths and water conditions. The natural forest paths connecting the two cascades offer chances to spot local wildlife and plant life while walking between levels.
