Diyaluma is the second highest waterfall in the country and cascades a shimmering 220 meters down a sheer, steep cliff. A meandering hour long walk leads through the hills to the top of the falls from the road below. You can also reach the apex by driving up and trekking down through rambling rocks and trees. Once on top, you can cool off by taking a dip in one of the immense natural rock pools and take pictures of the gorgeous scenery below. The views of the surrounding area perfectly capture the breathtaking beauty of the Hill Country.
