Calandula Falls

Kalandula, Malanje, Angola

---

Calandula Falls, also known as Kalandula Falls, is a magnificent waterfall located on the Lucala River near the town of Calandula in Malanje Province, Angola.

It is one of the largest waterfalls in Africa by volume, with a height of about 105 meters (344 feet) and a width of approximately 400 meters (1,312 feet). The falls have a horseshoe shape, surrounded by lush vegetation and scenic landscapes that create a breathtaking natural environment.

Despite its impressive size and beauty, Calandula Falls is less well-known internationally, partly due to its remote location about 360 kilometers from Luanda and less developed tourist infrastructure. The area around the falls is rich in biodiversity and holds cultural significance for local communities, making it both a natural wonder and an important heritage site in Angola.​
