Kambadaga Falls
Chute de Kambadaga
A three-tiered waterfall on the Kinkon River, dropping about 100 metres, and the most spectacular waterfall on the Fouta Djallon plateau.
Kambadaga Falls lies about 15 km south-west of Pita, where the Kinkon River drops in three tiers. In the rainy season the roar can be heard from far away and the mist fills the air. The end of the rains (September–October) is the best time to visit. Late in the dry season the flow drops noticeably, partly because the upstream Kinkon hydropower station affects the water level. From Pita it takes about 30 minutes by car, followed by a walk to the viewpoint; alternatively, a path leads down to the base of the falls. A small entry fee is charged, and you can combine a visit with Kinkon Falls and Doucki Canyon.
