Ducha del Diablo, Natural waterfall in Boquerón, Peru.

The waterfall cascades down 105 meters through dense vegetation, forming natural pools at its base near the Federico Basadre road.

Father Abad discovered this natural formation in 1757, bringing attention to this section of the Peruvian Amazon and its surrounding features.

Local inhabitants share narratives about a sorcerer named Lucifer who made deals with forest spirits, leading to events connected to the waterfall's creation.

The waterfall maintains free access from 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with the dry season between April and November offering optimal visiting conditions.

The water flow creates patterns on the rock face that form an apparent demon-like visage, inspiring the name Devil's Shower.
