A light 20-minute trek downhill from the parking area will take you to the falls. After exploring the waterfall, we'll head to a local restaurant for lunch. Next, discover Batu Cermin, a captivating tunnel-cave within a dark stone hill near Labuan Bajo. This site, whose name translates to 'Mirror Rock,' is renowned for its unique natural light show: sunlight entering through an opening bounces off the stone surfaces, creating a mirror-like reflection throughout the cave.
