We climb to the side of the mountain where a stream falls down the mountain forming pools. The rock is embedded with nickel ore which is lustrous green and worn smooth by the water's action.
We bath in the pools and enjoy the tropical climate.1

End of day one in New Caledonia - a hike into the water fall
We hike into a waterfall just to the north of KONE. It was obviously an old mine site. The amount of iron ore in the rocks is obvious by the rusty red appearance of the bedrock.
