    In this episode, we will take you along with us to El Chiflon Waterfalls!
    Chiapas, the southernmost state in Mexico, is full of environmental gems. But Cascadas El Chiflon/El Chiflon Waterfalls might top them all. Five giant waterfalls and countless swimming pools full of turquoise water are tucked away inside an incredible valley, connected by a great hiking trail. The main waterfall is nearly 400 ft (120 m) high and will shower you in its mist.
    Take a hike, go for a swim...you will love this place!
    Enjoy the ride with us!
