This is the highlight of the whole trip 龍尾朝天 (Sky-Pointing Dragon Tail). In dry seasons, one may attempt the rocky surface on the left of the waterfall. Or it is much recommended to take the faint path on the right of the cliff, it is much much safer.
After 龍尾朝天, the stream become less steep and narrower. A typical upper stream situation.
