Cascada de Cusárare

Cascada de Cusárare, Natural waterfall in Sierra Madre Occidental, Guachochi, Mexico.

Cascada de Cusárare is a permanent 30-metre fall on the stream of the same name, in the Sierra Tarahumara pine forest of Guachochi municipality, Chihuahua. The main stream drops in a thin white column down a vertically fractured cliff of orange-brown and grey rock, with a second, thinner stream sliding down the lighter rock to its right. The water collects in a small dark green pool ringed by pale, rounded boulders.

The waterfall lies about 2 km from the Rarámuri mission and community of Cusárare, in Guachochi Municipality, Chihuahua. The name comes from Rarámuri and means "the eaglets" or "place of eagles". The falls drop 30 m on the Cusárare stream at roughly 2,150 m above sea level, surrounded by pine forest in the Sierra Tarahumara.

The name Cusárare comes from Rarámuri and means "the eagles" or "place of eagles". The falls lie 2 km from the mission and community of the same name, home to Rarámuri (Tarahumara) people. The site sits at about 2,150 m in the Sierra Tarahumara, surrounded by pine forest.

The falls flow year-round, with the highest volume from July to September. Access is on foot only: a fairly flat path of 2 to 3 km starts beside Cusárare village, about 25 km southeast of Creel, and the falls lie 2.8 km from the nearest drivable road. Many tours leave from Creel.
