Thousand Foot Falls

Hidden Valley Falls

One of Central America's tallest waterfalls, with about 480 metres of drop pouring off granite cliffs, best viewed from an overlook.

Thousand Foot Falls, also known as Hidden Valley Falls, has an actual drop of about 480 metres and is one of the tallest waterfalls in Central America. Visitors cannot reach the base; instead they view the falls from an overlook on the opposite ridge, watching water pass through pine and rainforest before plunging into the deep valley. The reserve charges a small entrance fee, and the overlook has toilets and picnic shelters. Roads are bumpy, so combine it with other Mountain Pine Ridge sights.
