On the territory of the Noel Kempff Mercado National Park in Bolivia is one of the most famous man-made objects - the Arcoiris waterfall. It was formed in the riverbed of the Pauserni river. The name of the waterfall from the Spanish language is literally translated as "rainbow". Millions of travelers from around the world come to Noel Kempff Mercado National Park to see the full power and grandeur of this natural sight of Bolivia .
The uniqueness of the waterfall
The waterfall Arkoiris is located on the outskirts of a huge plateau of Kaparu in wild, untouched by the man of the jungle. This gives it even more brightness and romanticism. The state authorities of Bolivia , so as not to violate such virgin harmony, did not begin to build special roads to the waterfall. Noisy flow of cool water of Arcoiris descends from a height of 88 m, and its width reaches almost 50 m.
Arcoiris is not accidentally called "iridescent waterfall". The fact is that after lunch the sun's rays are refracted in the transparent water of the stream and create a bright multicolored rainbow. Such a spectacle can be observed for quite a long time. The very waterfall Arkoiris and the park, on whose territory this miracle of nature is located, are protected by the state. And since 2000 the reserve with all its sights has been inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
How to get to the waterfall?
You can reach the unique natural object in two ways. The simplest way is to use a light-engine aircraft. However, such a flight is not impressive as a ten-day hike on pies along the Pauserne River, followed by a hiking route through the wild jungle. This extreme tour, of course, exhausts. But the unusual beauty of the picture, which appears before the eyes of travelers, makes you forget about everything. The travel agencies of Bolivia note that going to the Arcoiris falls is the most popular entertainment among tourists.
