With big mountains and wide rivers, it should come as no surprise that there are many wonderful waterfalls in Ecuador. The waterfalls here are stunning and utterly scenic — many crash through rocky, forested areas and land in calm emerald pools. Some waterfalls may require a hike to get to, which will allow you to see plants and animals along the way. Other waterfalls are easily accessible from the road, but are magnificent nonetheless.
