- Tiered Waterfalls — A series of drops along the Comoé River that create a stitched-together cascade; the multiple levels make for dramatic photos and different vantage points to explore rather than one single fall.
- Natural Pools and Swim Spots — Emerald, calm pools carved by the rock at the base of the falls where locals and visitors cool off; some spots are perfect for a lazy swim, others for a nervous-but-fun cliff hop.
- Textured Rock Formations — Exposed sandstone and limestone around the falls are sculpted by water into ledges, hollows and small caves, giving the place a rugged, tactile look that contrasts with the smooth water.
- Riverside Birdlife and Freshwater Critters — The backwaters and reeds attract water birds, dragonflies and other river life; bring binoculars for quiet wildlife

- Riverside Birdlife and Freshwater Critters — The backwaters and reeds attract water birds, dragonflies and other river life; bring binoculars for quiet wildlife watching, especially in the morning.
- Local Village Life — Small communities nearby use the falls for laundry, fishing and ritual — visiting respectfully gives you a window into everyday rural life and a chance to buy handmade crafts or a snack from a vendor.
- Seasonal Drama — The falls change visibly with the rains: swollen, thunderous falls and intense greenery in the wet season; gentler, clearer pools and easier swimming in the dry season — both are worth seeing for different reasons.
- Sunset Views and Picnic Spots — Low cliffs and sandy banks make easy places to sit, eat, and watch the light turn the rocks and water warm orange; great for mellow evenings after a day of hiking or swimming.
