Iguazu Falls, Argentina/Brazil

Let’s kick off our adventure with a true natural wonder – the awe-inspiring Iguazu Falls. Straddling the border between Argentina and Brazil, this colossal waterfall system is a sight to behold. Prepare to be drenched by the thunderous cascades as you wander along the walkways that lead you into the heart of this natural marvel. Marvel at the sheer power and beauty of the falls as they plunge into the emerald-green waters of the Iguazu River, creating a mesmerizing spectacle that will leave you breathless.

Angel Falls, Venezuela

Next on our list is the world’s highest uninterrupted waterfall – Angel Falls in Venezuela. Named after Jimmy Angel, the adventurous aviator who discovered it, this waterfall is a true marvel of nature. Imagine standing at the base of the Tepui tabletop mountain, gazing up at the water gracefully cascading down a staggering 979 meters (3,212 feet). The mist, the lush greenery, and the sheer scale of Angel Falls create an enchanting experience that will make you feel like you’re in a real-life fairy tale.

Kaieteur Falls, Guyana

Prepare to be captivated by the majestic beauty of Kaieteur Falls in Guyana. This hidden gem is nestled within the dense rainforest of Kaieteur National Park. With a single drop of 226 meters (741 feet), it is one of the tallest single-drop waterfalls in the world. As you stand on the viewing platform, the sheer force and untouched wilderness of the surrounding area will transport you to a realm of untouched beauty.

Salto Ángel, Argentina

Our journey takes us to Argentina once again, this time to witness the breathtaking Salto Ángel (also known as Salto San Martín) in the province of Misiones. Hidden within the lush jungle of the Yabotí Biosphere Reserve, this waterfall offers a serene and awe-inspiring escape. Immerse yourself in the vibrant greens of the surrounding vegetation as the water cascades down in a graceful dance. Take a refreshing swim in the natural pools below and let the tranquility of this hidden gem wash over you.

Gocta Falls, Peru

Last but certainly not least, we venture into the heart of the Peruvian rainforest to discover the enchanting Gocta Falls. Nestled amidst the cloud forest of the Amazonas region, this two-tiered waterfall is a sight of pure beauty. As you hike through the lush vegetation, the anticipation builds until you catch your first glimpse of the falls – a mesmerizing curtain of water cascading down the cliffside. Let the mist kiss your cheeks as you marvel at the awe-inspiring power and tranquility of Gocta Falls.

The sound of rushing water, the gentle mist, and the feeling of being surrounded by clean, fresh air all come together to create an experience that feels almost otherworldly. Fortunately, you don’t have to travel to another world to enjoy their benefits. The United States is full of amazing waterfalls just waiting to be explored.  Here are a few lesser-known ones we especially love.

Ruby Falls, Tennessee

Ruby Falls is located deep inside Lookout Mountain near Chattanooga, Tennessee. At 145 feet, it’s the tallest underground waterfall open to the public in the entire US. The falls are illuminated with LED lights that make the water appear to glow in different colors. Walking to the falls is a bit of an adventure and involves navigating several narrow passageways, but the reward at the end is well worth it.

Arethusa Falls, New Hampshire

This waterfall is tucked away in the White Mountains and is one of the tallest waterfalls in New Hampshire. The hike to the falls is only about 1.5 miles long, and, although a bit rocky in parts, is easy enough for families with children. We recommend visiting in late spring or early summer when the stream is usually strongest.

Burney Falls, California

Theodore Roosevelt once referred to Burney Falls in Northern California as the “Eighth Wonder of the World” in reaction to its spectacular beauty. The 129-foot waterfall is fed by underground springs and is surrounded by lush greenery, making it a popular spot for hikers and nature lovers alike.

]]> Queensland is home to many beautiful national parks, but none of them compares to Springbrook. This Australian national park will win you over with countless natural attractions that it has in store, including its many breathtaking waterfalls—starting with these five.

Twin Falls

Twin Falls Circuit is one of Springbrook’s top attractions, and it’s especially popular with passionate hikers. You’ll find yourself walking among ferns and brush box trees before reaching a pair of waterfalls, offering panoramic views from the top of the Springbrook Plateau at the canyon below.

Purling Brook Falls

Located within the central section of Springbrook National Park in a midst of a forested area. One of the tracks leads down to Warringa Pool, which is more suitable for swimming than the base of the falls because it’s not as damaging to the waterfall’s diverse flora and fauna.

Bilbrough Falls

Also known as the Goomoolahra Falls, this cascade waterfall is a sight for sore eyes. The waterfall and its surrounding area are heaven on Earth for passionate hikers, and you’ll get crisp views of the hills and mountains of Springbrook once you reach the top.

]]> Laos is one of the most underrated countries in Southeast Asia, but you won’t be disappointed if you decide to pay it a visit. Its natural beauty knows no bounds, and you’ll be especially impressed by it if you enjoy chasing waterfalls because it has quite a few in store.

Kuang Si Falls

One of Laos’ top tourist attractions, Kuang Si Falls has to be seen to be believed. This natural wonder consists of three-tiered hillside waterfalls, cascading into turquoise water pools underneath, many of which are open for swimming. There are also walkways and bridges guiding you around the waterfalls and offering stunning views.

Khon Phapheng Falls

Khone Phapheng Falls is best known for being the widest waterfall in the world, and it also happens to be the largest in Southeast Asia. Unlike Kuang Si, it’s best admired from a distance because its rapids are difficult to navigate.

Tat Sae Waterfalls

If you’re looking for a calm and scenic waterfall that you can enjoy in Laos, Tat Sae Waterfalls perfectly fit that description. Their waters flow over limestones and form varied swimming pools underneath. There’s also an elephant sanctuary in their close proximity, which gives you one more reason to explore Tat Sae.

]]> Mount Wellington is one of the best day-trip destinations to visit from Tasmania’s capital of Hobart. Natural wonders are scattered all around it, and the waterfalls happen to be some of the very best. If you’re in the mood to go chasing waterfalls while exploring Mount Wellington, these three are a good place to start.

Wellington Falls

This waterfall borrows the name from Wellington National Park itself, which makes total sense since it’s the largest of all. The cascading waterfall comes with two major drops, and you should consider checking it out if you’re a passionate hiker.

Strickland Falls

Strickland Falls shares its name with several waterfalls in Australia, but it’s by far the most impressive. At just four meters high, it’s certainly not the largest waterfall you’ll come across while roaming around Wellington Park, but its proximity to Hobart, paired with its dense forest surroundings, makes it popular with nature lovers.

Myrtle Gully Falls

One of the most stunning waterfalls in Hobart’s close proximity, Myrtle Gully Falls is also known as Secret Falls. Don’t let its nickname fool you, because it’s actually one of the best-known waterfalls in this area thanks to the easy access and its stunning surroundings.

]]> Queensland is home to many beautiful national parks, but none of them compares to Springbrook. This Australian national park will win you over with countless natural attractions that it has in store, including its many breathtaking waterfalls—starting with these five.

Twin Falls

Twin Falls Circuit is one of Springbrook’s top attractions, and it’s especially popular with passionate hikers. You’ll find yourself walking among ferns and brush box trees before reaching a pair of waterfalls, offering panoramic views from the top of the Springbrook Plateau at the canyon below.

Purling Brook Falls

Located within the central section of Springbrook National Park in a midst of a forested area. One of the tracks leads down to Warringa Pool, which is more suitable for swimming than the base of the falls because it’s not as damaging to the waterfall’s diverse flora and fauna.

Bilbrough Falls

Also known as the Goomoolahra Falls, this cascade waterfall is a sight for sore eyes. The waterfall and its surrounding area are heaven on Earth for passionate hikers, and you’ll get crisp views of the hills and mountains of Springbrook once you reach the top.

]]> Laos is one of the most underrated countries in Southeast Asia, but you won’t be disappointed if you decide to pay it a visit. Its natural beauty knows no bounds, and you’ll be especially impressed by it if you enjoy chasing waterfalls because it has quite a few in store.

Kuang Si Falls

One of Laos’ top tourist attractions, Kuang Si Falls has to be seen to be believed. This natural wonder consists of three-tiered hillside waterfalls, cascading into turquoise water pools underneath, many of which are open for swimming. There are also walkways and bridges guiding you around the waterfalls and offering stunning views.

Khon Phapheng Falls

Khone Phapheng Falls is best known for being the widest waterfall in the world, and it also happens to be the largest in Southeast Asia. Unlike Kuang Si, it’s best admired from a distance because its rapids are difficult to navigate.

Tat Sae Waterfalls

If you’re looking for a calm and scenic waterfall that you can enjoy in Laos, Tat Sae Waterfalls perfectly fit that description. Their waters flow over limestones and form varied swimming pools underneath. There’s also an elephant sanctuary in their close proximity, which gives you one more reason to explore Tat Sae.

]]> Mount Wellington is one of the best day-trip destinations to visit from Tasmania’s capital of Hobart. Natural wonders are scattered all around it, and the waterfalls happen to be some of the very best. If you’re in the mood to go chasing waterfalls while exploring Mount Wellington, these three are a good place to start.

Wellington Falls

This waterfall borrows the name from Wellington National Park itself, which makes total sense since it’s the largest of all. The cascading waterfall comes with two major drops, and you should consider checking it out if you’re a passionate hiker.

Strickland Falls

Strickland Falls shares its name with several waterfalls in Australia, but it’s by far the most impressive. At just four meters high, it’s certainly not the largest waterfall you’ll come across while roaming around Wellington Park, but its proximity to Hobart, paired with its dense forest surroundings, makes it popular with nature lovers.

Myrtle Gully Falls

One of the most stunning waterfalls in Hobart’s close proximity, Myrtle Gully Falls is also known as Secret Falls. Don’t let its nickname fool you, because it’s actually one of the best-known waterfalls in this area thanks to the easy access and its stunning surroundings.
