The refreshing waterfalls of La Cascade elegantly tumble down a layered rock face.
The pont de lianes (vine bridge) adds to the excitement of getting to La Cascade
Like a number of West Africa countries, the Ivory Coast (Côte D’Ivoire) has seen its share of political upheaval and civil war over recent years. While the country is more famous for its towerering basilica (arguably the world’s largest) which rivals St Peter’s in the Vatican, its western border features the unusually named town of Man which hides among a suite of craggy mountains (the area is called Dix Huit Montagnes or 18 Mountains Region), verdant bamboo forest and coffee plantations.
A path carves through the bamboo forest just west of town over ominous Pont de Lianes (Vine Bridge). Littered with colourful dragonflies and butterflies joyously lapping at the intoxicating cool air, the path leads to the simply named and elegant La Cascade which softly tumbles down the layered rock carpeted in velvety green moss – the cool waters bringing refreshment on humid warm days.

I think you’d deserve a cool dip if you’d walked through the forest to get there
On a hot day, nothing is nicer.
