Argyle Falls

Argyle Falls consists of three tiers of water cascading down about 54 meters over rock formations, creating natural pools at each level. The water drops through multiple stages, and each tier has its own small reservoir where the water collects before flowing onward.

The falls formed over thousands of years as water eroded the metamorphic rocks in the Main Ridge Forest Reserve. This long process of carving shaped the landscape into the tiered system visible today.

Local guides share stories about plants along the path, including cocoa trees and herbs that have been used by people here for generations.

Access is via a marked trail that takes about 20 minutes to walk from the entrance. Wear shoes with good grip, as the path can become slippery, especially after rain.

In the uppermost pool, visitors can swing from natural vines hanging from surrounding trees before diving into the water below. These hanging vines offer a playful and adventurous way to enter the deepest swimming area.
