Catarata El Tirol, Waterfall in Chanchamayo Province, Peru
El Tirol Waterfall contains three cascades with a total height of 35 meters, forming a wide water curtain that drops into an emerald-colored pool.
The waterfall's name derives from the Austrian settlers who established themselves in San Ramon during the 19th century colonization of central Peru.
Local residents consider the waterfall a natural sanctuary where they perform traditional ceremonies during significant agricultural dates of the year.
The site remains accessible from April through December, with a 40-minute walking trail starting at Puente Paloma bridge near San Ramon town.
The natural pool at the base creates water massage effects through its rock formations, maintaining a constant temperature of 21 degrees Celsius.
