Kalandula Falls, Angola
Explore the world | Romance and Faith | Angola
The Kalandula Falls are on the Lucala River, a tributary of the Kwanza River, in Angola. Located 420 kilometres from Luanda, it is the second most important waterfall in Africa.
Up to 1975, it was known as Duque de Bragança Falls (Quedas do Duque de Bragança), but after the end of Portuguese rule in Angola, the name changed to Kalandula Falls.
This natural wonder is located in Angola’s rainforest, in a surprising landscape where vegetation is very diverse. The horseshoe-shaped waterfall allows us to appreciate nature’s magnificence at its best. It is 345 feet high and 1345 feet wide, making it the largest waterfall in Angola and the second largest in Africa after Victoria Falls.
The best moment to visit is during the rainy season from February to April. The water flow is higher and the waterfall is surrounded by a fine mist that makes it even more magical. And as a little extra, swimming is allowed.
