Manqui Malal Waterfall
Cascada de Manqui Malal
A canyon waterfall about 30 km south of Malargüe that drops from the cliff face into a green pool. It is often visited together with the Witches' Cave.
The name Manqui Malal means "Enclosure of the Condors." The stream drops after passing through a basalt canyon, forming a cool pool and a corridor of rock walls. The trail starts from a roadside parking area and takes about 15 minutes to reach the falls. The site is small but easy to reach, and it is usually visited as a stop on the way to the Witches' Cave or Volcán Malacara. The canyon rocks are slippery, so wear non-slip shoes.
