Salto de Bordones, 400-meter waterfall in Huila, Colombia.

The water plunges down a vertical cliff face in a single uninterrupted cascade, forming a white veil against the dark rock surface.

The waterfall has remained untouched since its natural formation during the geological processes that shaped the Andes mountains millions of years ago.

Local indigenous communities consider the waterfall a natural monument, incorporating its presence into their traditional stories and environmental preservation practices.

Visitors can reach the observation point through a 10-minute walk from the main square of Bordones village, following clear trail markers.

The constant flow of water creates a permanent rainbow effect when sunlight hits the mist rising from the base of the falls.

Height: 400 m
