Lofoi Falls, Waterfall in Katanga Province, Democratic Republic of the Congo

Lofoi Falls drops 384 meters through vertical cliffs, creating intense water flows that cascade down multiple tiers in the Lofoyi region.

The waterfall has remained relatively undocumented until recent geological surveys established its position among the highest waterfalls in central Africa.

Local communities in Katanga Province maintain traditional practices near the falls, incorporating the sound of falling water into their ceremonies.

Visitors need to obtain permits and arrange transportation through local authorities to reach the falls, as access roads remain limited.

The falls create distinct microclimates along their vertical drop, supporting specialized plant species that thrive in the constant mist.
