This natural pool was created thousands of years ago when the dome of an underground river collapsed due to massive erosion. It is renowned for its 50-foot waterfall, jade-green waters, and the grotto that encircles it. Hosting a variety of plant species, it provides a perfect habitat for several endangered species and forms a crucial component of the local ecosystem. The preserve is not only a popular swimming destination but also a protected natural habitat that allows for hiking, nature watching, and picnicking, all the while adhering to the principles of conservation and environmental stewardship.
