Pará Falls (Salto Pará), Venezuela
View Original Description
Pará Falls (Salto Pará) are said to be the largest waterfall in Venezuela by volume. Pará Falls is a spectacular horseshoe of 12 powerful falls deep in the Orinoco rainforest.
The falls are suppose to stand 70 meters tall, dropping in main two steps, and stretching as much as 7 kilometers (3 1/2 miles) wide, separated by many small islands. Flood stage volume of the river is supposed to reach 400,000 cubic feet per second. Taking these numbers into account, this waterfall easily works its way onto the list of the 10 most powerful in the world.
The falls are a 2-hour trek through the rainforest.
