Chilascó Waterfall

Researched (not yet visited in person)Last reviewed: not yet reviewed in person

A 160-meter drop at the end of a cloud-forest hike — effort that pays for itself.

One of Central America’s tallest waterfalls (~160 m), hidden in the Sierra de las Minas Biosphere Reserve. The hike from San Rafael Chilascó village crosses cloud forest where the quetzal nests — its Poqomchi’ name means "dark mountains".
