Ask a villager about where you can bathe in the waterfall. In any case, it is good for the body to take a bath in a place where the water is low because there are dangerous places in the waterfall.

Google Map also shows the way we went. If you go by bike you can go to the waterfall on that road. A 4 wheel high vehicle is also possible.
