About

Piedra Volada Falls (Cascada de Piedra Volada) is a 453-meter-tall (1, 490 ft) plunge waterfall that forms seasonally in the Barranca Candameña of the Sierra Madre Occidental range in Chihuahua, Mexico. Though it only flows during the rainy season, it is considered the tallest waterfall in Mexico and one of the tallest waterfalls in the world. The English translation of Piedra Volada is "Flying Rock" or "Flying Stone".
