The Tallest Waterfalls In The World
Do you picture towering waterfalls when you think about Peru? But did you know that Peru has numerous enormous waterfalls, including the Gocta Waterfalls? At 771 meters high, the Gocta Waterfalls, or Catarata de Gocta in Spanish, are one of the world's tallest waterfalls. It was the third highest waterfall in the world when it was discovered, but it is now somewhere between third and sixteenth, depending on how it is measured.
The Gocta Waterfall, located in Northern Peru's Amazonas region, is surrounded by mountains and jungle, creating a unique and stunning landscape. The best thing about the Gocta Waterfall is that you may hike to many different places of it. The most popular alternative is a three-hour climb from Cocachimba to the bottom of the falls, where you can truly appreciate nature's strength. Just make sure anything you bring with you is waterproof or it will be ruined if it gets wet!
