Driving and hiking to Hierve el agua

This weekend we decided to take a trip to Hierve el agua with a few friends. Not knowing that the near by town had closed off the road for some reason us foreigners will never understand. So we had to park at the road block and hike the last 4kms on a very rocky, dusty road and of course in the scorching afternoon sun. After an hour hike and passing few people and some live stock we arrived to the cold natural springs of Hierve el agua.
