Piedra Volada, Seasonal waterfall in Copper Canyon, Mexico.

Piedra Volada is a plunge waterfall that forms seasonally on the left wall of the Barranca Candameña, about 7 km downstream of the canyon head, in Chihuahua, Mexico. Its water drops 453 meters in free fall from a notch near the top of a pinkish-brown and grey cliff, landing on rocks and a darkened pool below. The name means "Flying Rock"; the stream above is usually dry.

Piedra Volada was first measured in 1995 by the Ciudad Cuauhtémoc Speleology Group led by Carlos Lazcano, who recorded a free fall of 453 metres. The falls lie at the southern edge of Cascada de Basaseachi National Park, in the Candameña canyon of Ocampo Municipality. Access to the pour-off crosses private land near Ejido San Lorenzo, administered with CONANP.

The name Piedra Volada is a misnomer: the real name, Piedra Bolada, refers to a spherical stone formation, and the same name belongs to the stream and the nearest settlement. Locals of Huajumar know the falls and can be hired as guides to the viewpoints. Myths and legends surround the fall, which is visible only on certain days of the rainy season.

The waterfall flows best from June to October when rainfall is heaviest and the cascade is most dramatic. Plan your visit during these months, and be aware that access follows marked trails through private land with an entrance fee.

The name is often misunderstood: "Piedra Volada" means flying stone, but the original name is Piedra Bolada, referring to a spherical rock formation that gives its name to the nearby stream and settlement. The falls were first measured in 1995 by the Ciudad Cuauhtémoc Speleology Group led by Carlos Lazcano.
