Alexandra Falls

Alexandra Falls is a waterfall in Black River Gorges National Park in the Savanne District that cascades down in several stages. The water flows into a pool surrounded by thick forest at an elevation of about 700 meters.

The national park was established to protect the waterfall and its surroundings, which are home to plants and animals found nowhere else. This protection ensures the area remains preserved for the future.

Local people use the area around the falls to gather fruits that grow naturally in the region, continuing practices passed down through generations. This connection to the land shapes how residents relate to this part of the national park.

The waterfall can be reached by private vehicle since public buses do not serve this area. Visitors should wear sturdy hiking shoes and be careful on the uneven, wet paths.

Four wooden bridges cross narrow paths that include sections requiring careful, technical footing to reach the waterfall base. These bridges are often the most memorable part of the walk for many visitors.
