Gozalandia, also called Las Cataratas or El Roble, is a pair of waterfalls on a river with several pools in San Sebastian. From the parking area, walk about 5 minutes down a cement path and steps to the main falls, roughly 50 feet tall with a deep swimming pool. Back at the top of the steps, a cement path continues along the river past more pools to a thinner upper falls about 10 minutes away; reaching it involves scrambling over a rock. This listing sits between the published parking and the main falls, so it may mark either the main falls or the upper falls.
