Jana Schulz, also known as ‘Jana of the Jungle,’ fell in love with the Magical Mogos Waterfalls during her first visit in 1996 and purchased the property in 2005. Over the years, Jana has hosted numerous local and foreign friends at the waterfalls, and all visitors have been astonished by the unique experience.
