Moli Rainforest: a shaded morning walk to a 60 m waterfall near Ruili
Moli gorge, northeast of Ruili
About 20 km northeast of Ruili, Moli protects a gorge of tropical forest. A path follows a clear stream under huge old trees and past a rock said to bear the Buddha's footprint, ending at Moli Waterfall, which drops about 60 metres. The walk from the visitor centre to the falls and back takes about an hour and a half.
What locals sayReviews are mostly warm: the path is easy enough for older walkers and kids, and mornings beat the midday heat.
