about the World's Waterfalls
|
| |
| Over the last several years, our research has led
us to hundreds of previously undocumented waterfalls
around the world. Many of these we know very little
about. Conversely, there are many waterfalls which appear
to have been widely documented and reported in various
sources. It is these waterfalls which most often draw
question from us. Misconceptions regarding waterfalls
are both varied and abundant, and almost exclusively
focus on height. Many countries, states, or regions
exert some questionable claim with regard to height
of a nearby waterfall. Regional emotions certainly come
into play, and more often then not, various tourism
related entities (local Department of Commerce, etc)
are responsible for these fallacies. Clearing up these
misconceptions is likely to be a time consuming activity,
even the issue of where to start is quite unclear in
many situations. On this page, we are addressing the
most common occurrences of such errors. As we learn
more, this page will be updated. Lesser known inaccuracies
will be shown under the information for each respective
waterfall in the database. |

| Tallest
Waterfall East of the Rocky Mountains / Mississippi
River Myths:
This is one of the most commonly disputed topics on
this page. There have been no less than 10 waterfalls
that have been claimed as the tallest waterfall east
of the Rocky Mountains. Now, first, to define the region
we're discussing, we're talking about east of the bottom
of the eastern slope of the Rockies, not waterfalls
east of the Continental Divide, so waterfalls just on
the eastern side of the Continental Divide don't count.
Fall Creek Falls in Tennessee, dropping 256 feet, has
been regarded as the tallest single drop east of the
Rockies. However, that claim is shot down by Buckeye
Falls, also located in Tennessee, which is said to drop
about 475 feet, and North Carolina's Hickory Nut Falls,
which drops 404 feet over a rounded cliff.
When it comes to the tallest overall drop, there have
been even more claims. Upper Whitewater Falls in North
Carolina, dropping 411 feet in two distinct steps, is
widely claimed as the tallest waterfall east of the
Rockies. However, it is one upped by another fall in
North Carolina, Windy Falls, which is a 1/4 mile long
series of cascades, dropping 729 feet.
Amicalola Falls in Georgia, also dropping 729 feet,
easily beats out Raven Cliff Falls, South Carolina's
oft-cited candidate for the title of tallest east of
the Rockies. We, however, believe the heights for both
of the aforementioned waterfalls have been exaggerated.
Amicalola Falls has a vertical drop of no more than
about 300 feet, and we're hard pressed to call Raven
Cliff anything more than 320 feet.
Moving farther North, we've got Taughannock Falls in
New York, which as been called the tallest of that state,
the tallest in New England, and the tallest east of
the Mississippi. All three claims are wrong. New York's
Inspiration Falls, dropping about 350 feet, is thought
of as the tallest in New York. As for New England, Dryad
Falls (300 feet), Giant Falls (350 feet) and the Beaver
Brook Cascades (1,000 feet) in New Hampshire, Smugglers
Falls (886 feet) in Vermont, and Katahdin Falls (800
feet) in Maine all stand well above Taughannock.
Other waterfalls in more low-lying states have often
been claimed as the tallest east of the Rockies as well.
Big Manitou Falls, Wisconsin’s tallest, at a whopping
165 feet, has been said to be both the tallest east
of the Rockies, and the 3rd tallest east of the Mississippi
River. Obviously, somebody was a little overzealous
in that claim.
While some of those waterfalls do have a moderately
valid claim, most claims are fueled by regional emotion
and favoritism, and probably a little bit by various
tourism institutions. To the best of our knowledge,
the title of tallest waterfall east of the Rocky Mountains
belongs to both New Hampshire's Beaver Brook Cascades,
and Virginia's Crabtree Falls. Both waterfalls drop
approximately 1,000 feet in about 2/3 of a mile.

Tallest Waterfall
of the United States/ (n)th Tallest Waterfall in the
United States Myths:
The United States might be the biggest hotbed of inaccurate
information regarding waterfalls, due to the excessive
publicity that the most well known waterfalls receive.
There are two specific myths we’ll focus on in
this section. The first is the Tallest Waterfall of
the Country.
Yosemite Falls, in California’s Yosemite National
Park, at 2,425 feet tall, is widely thought of as the
tallest waterfall in the United States. However, there
is at least one waterfall in Washington State, Colonial
Creek Falls, which likely stands taller than Yosemite
Falls. Official measurements have yet to be made, but
Colonial Creek Falls may stand a full 150+ feet taller
than Yosemite Falls. There are other locations in Washington
which may also harbor similar waterfalls, which need
to be explored.
Outside of the Lower 48 States, there are more cases.
Alaska is one of the largest undocumented regions in
the world, regarding waterfalls. Considering the substantial
glaciation which occurs in Alaska, it’s reasonable
to postulate that there are many waterfalls exceeding
2000 feet tall.
Hawaii, however, holds several waterfalls which are
known, for sure, to drop further than Yosemite Falls.
Olo’upena Falls, at 2953 feet, Pu'uka'oku Falls
at 2756 feet, both located on the northern shore of
Molokai, and Waihilau Falls, at 2600 feet, located in
the Waimanu Valley on the Big Island, all stand taller
than Yosemite Falls. Both Olo’upena and Pu’uka’oku
Falls lie on very small streams, and only appear to
flow during the rainy season, but Waihilau Falls appears
to retain some level of flow for most of the year. None
of these waterfalls, however, hold a candle to Yosemite
Falls, or those in Washington or Alaska, in terms of
volume or grandiosity.
The second myth we’re highlighting in this section
is the commonly disputed “nth” Tallest Waterfall
in the Country. A list of the tallest waterfalls in
the United States is available here, for comparison,
and to see where some of these waterfalls fall.
Yosemite Falls, as mentioned above, is commonly referenced
as the tallest in the country. In reality, it is no
more than 5th tallest in the country.
Oregon’s Multnomah Falls is commonly cited as
being either the 2nd or 4th tallest waterfall in the
country, as well as the 2nd tallest Year long waterfall
in the country. None of these claims are accurate. Dropping
a total of 611 feet, Multnomah Falls may not even be
the tallest waterfall in Oregon. As of now, we are aware
of at least 30 waterfalls in Washington State, at least
30 in Hawaii, at least 15 in California, at least 7
in Montana, at least 4 in Alaska, one in Arizona, one
in New Mexico, one in Georgia, one in Maine, one in
Vermont, one in New Hampshire, and one in Virginia,
all which stand taller than Multnomah Falls. Any way
its cut, this is purely regional emotion.
Similarly, California’s 640 foot Feather Falls
is commonly said to be the 4th tallest in the country.
This is odd, because we’ve already established
that Yosemite is commonly said to the tallest, and Multnomah
Falls is commonly said to be the 4th tallest, which
leaves just one empty spot on the top 4 list to be filled
by over 70 waterfalls. Clearly, there is some half-assed
research going in. In addition to this, Washington’s
Fairy Falls, dropping about 700 feet, is widely claimed
as the 5th tallest in the country. Now, how a 640 foot
waterfall can be thought of as being taller than a 700
foot waterfall is beyond our comprehension. |

Tallest
Waterfall of Canada / (n)th Tallest Waterfall in Canada
Myths:
This section will be a little more ambiguous than the
previous, because much of western Canada is not as heavily
documented as necessary to define the true tallest waterfalls
in the country. We’ll start out again, with the
tallest of the country myths.
The Canadian Government identifies British Columbia’s
Della Falls, dropping 1443 feet on Vancouver Island,
as the tallest waterfall in Canada. In reality, chances
are, it’s not even the tallest waterfall on Vancouver
Island. Also situated on Vancouver Island is Kiwi Falls,
which may or may not, pending an accurate measurement,
drops a little less than 1600 feet, with a possible
additional 300 feet further downstream. There are also
several unnamed, but significant volume waterfalls at
the head of nearby Woss Lake, which are thought to drop
between 1300 and 1500 feet each.
This is, however, just scratching the surface. Western
British Columbia is by far the most rugged part of Canada,
and we suspect contains as heavy a concentration of
waterfalls as does Norway’s west coast. Most of
the big waterfalls in BC aren’t named, but that
doesn’t mean they aren’t significant. Alfred
Creek Falls, near Powell River, dropping nearly 2300
feet, is the tallest waterfall which we’ve recorded
in Canada thus far. We are aware of an additional 11
waterfalls within Canada which stand taller than Della
Falls, but wouldn’t be surprised if there are
more than 100.
The second myth we’re highlighting in this section
is the commonly disputed “nth” Tallest Waterfall
in the Country. A list of the tallest waterfalls in
Canada is available here, for comparison, and to see
where some of these waterfalls fall.
British Columbia’s Hunlen Falls is usually seen
occupying the number 2 spot on Tallest of Canada lists.
The falls drop 1226 feet in a single plunge, and though
among the country’s tallest, the explanation regarding
Della Falls clearly shows that Hunlen isn’t nearly
the second tallest in the country.
Takkakaw Falls, in Yoho National Park, on the western
edge of the Canadian Rocky Mountains, is one of the
best waterfalls in all of North America, with a total
drop of 1248 feet. With a single plunge of 854 feet,
Takkakaw Falls is usually seen at the number 3 spot,
followed shortly by Helmcken Falls, located in Wells
Gray Provincial Park, at number five. Helmcken Falls
drops 462 feet, so already, we’re seeing a significant
discrepancy in height. This is mainly because the other
tall waterfalls of Canada are largely unknown.
Rounding out this section is the oft-cited Panther
Falls, which usually takes up the number 4 spot on this
list. We differentiate this particular waterfall for
good reason. The Canadian Government (specifically the
Canadian Geographical Names Database), as well as many
encyclopedias throughout the last several decades, commonly
list Panther Falls as dropping 600 feet. The actual
height of Panther Falls is closer to 200 feet. We believe
the origin of such an outlandish discrepancy comes from
one of the two following situations. A) Located about
1/3 mile downstream of Panther Falls is Nigel Creek
Falls, which also drops about 200 feet. Taking that,
along with the change in elevation between the two waterfalls,
into account, Nigel Creek may, in fact, lose 600 feet
of elevation. B) The more likely of the two situations.
About 300 feet downstream from the base of Panther Falls
lay Bridal Veil Falls, along a tributary stream. Bridal
Veil Falls drops over 1500 feet from the mountain above,
but the final 600 feet or so is the most significant.
It’s possible that the heights for Panther Falls
and Bridal Veil Falls were mixed up at one time or another.

Tallest
Waterfall of Australia Myths:
While we aren't nearly as familiar with the waterfalls
of Australia as we are with the waterfalls of North
America, we have come across several instances that
prove we have a much better grasp on how Australia's
waterfalls stack up.
Possibly the most outrageous error is the mismeasurement
of Piemans Falls. Piemans Falls had been cited as dropping
2,346 feet, making it the tallest in Australia. However,
after a little research, and talking with some knowledgeable
waterfall enthusiasts from down under, we've concluded
that Piemans Falls drops 234.6 meters, or 769 feet.
Time's 2004 World Almanac erroneously cited the wrong
figure in it's list of the World's Tallest Waterfalls,
and apparently couldn't correct it prior to the publishing
deadline, so hopefully this entry will help clear the
confusion.
Regarding the true Tallest Waterfall of Australia,
this is how it breaks down. The most commonly cited
cases include Tin Mine Falls, which is said to drop
1381 feet, Wallaman Falls, at 1137 feet, Wollomombi
Falls, at 1392 feet, and Ellenborough Falls, at 525
feet. Obviously Ellenborough Falls is ousted by the
previous three waterfalls, but it is commonly listed
because of easy access.
Tin Mine Falls might have a valid claim at the title;
however, not having ever seen a picture, we can't confirm
anything at the time. The falls are said to have been
measured with a plumb line in 1994, arriving at the
figure mentioned previously, so if this is true, Tin
Mine is certainly a contender. Topographic maps
seem to suggest that the falls really aren't more than
about 600 feet tall, unless they aren't a sheer drop,
and consist of almost a mile's length of low-gradient
cascades.
Wallaman Falls is one of the most well known of Australia's
major waterfalls. The falls have a total drop of 1137
feet, with a single plunge of 915 feet. This single
drop is thought to be the tallest single drop in the
country, but, as mentioned above, if Tin Mine Falls
is indeed, a single drop of over 1300 feet, then Wallaman
doesn't get either title.
Wollomombi Falls is probably as well known as Wallaman
Falls, though the big issue here is confusion surrounding
the falls' height. The falls drop a total of about 1392
feet, with a single drop of 853 feet. The single drop
has, like Wallaman, been claimed to be the tallest in
Australia, but unlike Wallaman, Wollomombi Falls is
often cited as consisting of just the single drop, when
in reality, there is an additional 500 feet of cascades
in the gorge upstream.
We had seen evidence that the true tallest waterfall
in Australia is Marengo Falls in New South Wales. The
falls reportedly drop 2100 feet, and are located in
the same canyonous area where Wollomombi Falls are located.
However, we have been told the falls are actually 62
meters tall, rather than 640, so this was likely a case
of a misplased "0" rather than anything else.
So then this means Wollomombi Falls and Tin Mine Falls
are probably the two contenders for Tallest Waterfall
of Australia.

Tallest Waterfalls
of Europe Myths:
This section will be broken down a little differently.
The first section will break down the claims as to the
tallest waterfall in Europe, and the second section
will cover claims on a per-country basis, in the name
of simplicity and space saving.
There are a handful of waterfalls which are commonly
given the nod as being the tallest waterfall in all
of Europe. Most of these are often referenced because
they are popular tourist draws, and are easy to access.
Starting off, we’ll discuss claims as to which
waterfall in Europe has the tallest individual drop.
Staubbach drops a sheer 984 feet in the famous Lauderbrunnen
Valley in Switzerland. While the falls are quite impressive,
there are other waterfalls in the same valley which
are taller, which immediately closes the book on this
case.
Norway’s Vettisfossen drops a sheer 902 feet,
in a similar fashion as Staubbach, but as mentioned
before, Staubbach stands a full 80 feet taller than
Vettisfossen, so Vettisfossen would then be relegated
to second place. Finally, also in Norway, Feigefossen,
drops 751 feet, which has also been claimed as the tallest
waterfall in Europe, stands well below the heights mentioned
above.
The above mentioned falls are popularly cited because
they are easily accessible, but there are at least two
additional waterfalls in Europe which should be on this
list. Spain’s Salto del Nervión drops 882
feet, and effectively bumps Feigefossen out of third
place from the above mentioned selection. However, the
tallest freefalling waterfall which we are aware of
in Europe is Kjeragfossen. The falls are said to flow
all year long, but don’t exhibit a large volume.
What they lack in volume, however, is made up in height,
as the falls plunge over 2300 feet down the wall of
the Lysefjord.
When it comes to overall drop in Europe, we see many
more candidates, which are again compounded by popularity
and ease of access, among other things.
Starting off, two of Switzerland’s waterfalls;
Staubbach and Giessbach have been claimed as being the
tallest waterfall in Europe. We’ve already disproved
the claim of Staubbach in the above section. Giessbach,
located in the same region as Staubbach, drops a total
of about 1283 feet, though no individual section of
the falls stands over 200 feet tall.
France’s entry for this section is the Grande
Cascade de Gavarnie, or Gavarnie Falls. Dropping 1384
feet, this is, to the best of our knowledge, the tallest
waterfall in France. This probably accounts for some
of the claims to the falls being the tallest in Europe.
Austria’s tallest and most famous waterfall,
the Krimmler Wasserfälle, is among the best in
Europe, but at a total height of 1248 feet, and having
a tallest individual drop of 492 feet, it stands well
below the tallest of the continent.
Though widely unknown, and largely dependant on seasonal
precipitation, an unnamed waterfall in Slovenia, which
we list on this website as Slapovi Levo Savice, is said
to drop just under 2000 feet down a mountainside riddled
with limestone caves and tunnels. Though still not the
tallest in Europe, this waterfall immediately puts all
previous claims out to pasture.
Moving on to Norway, the Mecca of European Waterfalls,
there are three waterfalls often claimed as being the
tallest in Europe. As already mentioned, Vettisfossen,
dropping 902 feet, is well below the other waterfalls
which have been outlined, but it gets recognition because
of its popularity with tourists.
Next up is Tyssestrengene, the height of which has
been in dispute for quite some time. The most commonly
seen figure is 2795 feet, but study of topographic maps
show this to be an impossibility. Our best estimates
place it at about 2120 feet, with the tallest single
drop at around 1082 feet.
Besting this, but still not claiming the title, is
one of the most famous waterfalls in Norway, the Mardalsfossen.
Dropping 2154 feet in two steps, it is widely claimed
as the tallest waterfall in Northern Europe, all of
Europe, and among the top 5 in the world.
Kjelfossen, stretching even taller, at about 2477 feet,
has been widely claimed to be 2755 feet tall, but we
believe that figure has been overblown, and is inaccurate,
and 2477 feet is a much more reasonable figure.
The true tallest waterfalls in Europe are in Norway,
but aren’t any of the previously mentioned. The
Balåifossen is the tallest waterfalls which we
have mapped to date, dropping approximately 2788 feet,
with Strupenfossen and Ramnefjellsfossen, at 2690 and
2685 feet respectively, at second and third place. |

Waterfall-specific
Myths:
Dudhsagar Falls
India
Up until very recently, we had assumed that Dudhsagar
Falls stood 1968 feet tall, but had always had a nagging
feeling, based on the pictures we’ve seen, and
that the falls were much smaller than that. A recently
uncovered picture of a sign leading to a viewpoint of
the falls states that the total drop is 1017 feet, not
1968 feet. We don’t know where this figure originated
from, but it has long been the only figure we’d
ever seen on the internet, or in any encyclopedia, and
usually when only one figure is available, it propagates
as adopted “fact” much quicker than if there
were multiple conflicting figures.
Espelandsfossen
Norway
We know of three waterfalls in Norway by the name Espelandsfossen.
None of them drop anywhere near 2000 feet. The largest
of the three drops about 500 feet, the other two don’t
appear to be over 300 feet tall. There are two possible
reasons for this large of a discrepancy.
One; in Norway, the majority of electricity generation
comes from hydroelectric facilities. The Hydropower
Industry uses a system of measuring potential output
of a given stream, termed Meters of Head. This is essentially
a measurement of elevation between the intake, and turbines.
Should the Espelands River be harnessed for hydroelectric
production, it’s possible that the commonly cited
figure of 2307 feet comes from a measurement of Meters
of Head, which is often not an accurate measurement
of the waterfall itself, because cascades above and
below could be included.
Two; the name Espelandsfossen has been applied to a
waterfall by the name of Skrikjofossen, which drops
about 1500 feet in two steps. When the cascades below
the main part of the falls are taken into account, the
total drop exceeds 2000 feet. We believe that this is
the more likely situation, but even if correct, the
height is still wrong.
Multnomah Falls
United States
Two claims are often attached to Multnomah Falls, stature,
those being that Multnomah Falls is the 4th tallest
waterfall in the United States, and that Multnomah Falls
is the 2nd tallest year-round waterfall in the United
States. To address the first claim, Multnomah Falls
might not even be the tallest waterfall in Oregon, let
alone the United States. This
list says it all. You'll find Multnomah Falls somewhere
around # 125.
As to the second claim, see the previous paragraph.
It's absolutely ludicrous to us that it could be assumed
that a 600 foot waterfall is second to a 2400 foot waterfall
in a country the size of the US. Both of these myths
have been perpetuated by the tourism industry, and fact
finders who don’t do their homework.
Niagara Falls
United States / Canada
Niagara Falls is probably the most famous waterfall
on the planet. It is understandable, then, that there
must be some pretty egregious claims about the falls.
First up is the claim that Niagara is the tallest waterfall
in the United States. This erroneous tidbit of information
usually stems from a) a lack of information, and b)
the fact that people who visit Niagara Falls are justifiably
awed by its size and force. The tallest waterfall in
the United States is over 25 times as tall as Niagara
Falls.
Niagara Falls has also been claimed as the biggest
waterfall in the world. Niagara Falls is the biggest
waterfall, by volume, in North America, but it is nowhere
near the biggest in the world. Again, this bit of misinformed
babbling stems from both a lack of information, and
the first impression the Niagara makes. This
list sorts out the issue.
Opofossen
Norway
Opofossen is one often seen on many “World’s
Tallest” lists as dropping 2,133 feet. The falls
on the Opo River, while collectively dropping over 2000
feet, appear to have individual names applied to different
sections of falls, so we’re not sure whether calling
the whole series one waterfall is valid.
The Opo River possesses a series of waterfalls, however,
at least two of them are individually named, those being
Rjukanefossen and Bjornabyksefossen. It is possible
that Opofossen was a name given to the collective series
of waterfalls on the Opo River, but if that is the case,
we’ve never seen any evidence to back up such
a theory, which leads us to option number 2:
Another waterfall in the drainage, Skrikjofossen, drops
down a sheer 2-step waterfall immediately next to the
waterfalls of the Opo River, and has been cited as being
over 2,000 feet tall (in reality, it's closer to 1,500
feet tall). It is conceivable that someone may have
though it to be Opofossen, since it is the most obvious
and accessible of the waterfalls in the drainage basin.
Piemans Falls
Australia
For several years, we had believed that Piemans Falls
stood 2,346 feet tall, the tallest in Australia, simply
because we had only seen one figure citing the falls
as 2,346 feet tall. Several years later, we were contacted
by person who confirmed that the falls were NOT 2,346
feet tall, but rather 234.6 METERS, or 769 feet, tall.
Just goes to show how important a decimal point can
be.
To illustrate how this kind of erroneous information
propagates, pick up the 2004 Time World Almanac, and
look for their list of the World's Tallest Waterfalls.
You'll see Piemans Falls cited as being 2,346 feet tall.
The source? The predecessor of this website, the list
of the World's Tallest Waterfalls on Waterfalls
of the Pacific Northwest. The editors of the Almanac
likely didn't become aware of the corrected error in
time to meet publishing deadlines.
Sutherland Falls
New Zealand
Sutherland Falls has two myths attached to its name.
The first claim is that it is the tallest waterfall
in New Zealand. Now, when a 1904 foot waterfall ISN’T
the tallest waterfall in a country, you better bet there
are some great waterfalls around. Besting Sutherland
Falls in height, but not necessarily impressiveness,
are Browne Falls, at 2744 feet, and Bluff Falls, which
we have only seen reference to (so we can’t back
up this claim), at 1968 feet. Sutherland Falls, is,
however, the best waterfall in the country which we
are aware of.
The second claim is that Sutherland Falls is the 5th
Tallest waterfall in the world. As this
list shows, it comes in around 54th tallest in the
world.
Triberg Wasserfalle
Germany
The Triberg Waterfalls are commonly called the tallest
waterfall in Germany. With a total vertical drop of
496 feet, the falls stand over 1000 feet shorter than
the true tallest waterfall in Germany, the Rothbachfall.
The Triberg Waterfalls are much more well known, and
are much easier to access, so it is understandable where
the erroneous information came from, but it is naïve
to assume that a waterfall under 500 feet tall is the
tallest in a country with mountains such as the Alps.
Vernal and Nevada Falls
United States
Two of the most famous waterfalls in the United States
also have two of the largest instances of incorrect
information attached to them. Virtually every data source
available lists Vernal Falls as 317 feet tall, and Nevada
Falls as 594 feet tall. Apparently nobody ever thought
to challenge these figures, despite the topographic
maps showing them to be a physical impossibility. This
is worked out as follows:
Vernal Falls has a sheer plunge of approximately 200
feet, followed be a section of steep boulder cascades.
We are unsure how far downstream the river must flow
to lose another 117 feet in elevation, but wouldn’t
be surprised if it was all the way to the footbridge
1/5 of a mile downstream of the falls.
Nevada Falls, we can’t figure out where the figure
of 594 feet came from in the first place. The maps clearly
show a drop of about 420 feet, but both above and below
the falls, there is nowhere else where the river could
lose the remaining 174 feet. The only possible explanation
is that the falls were measured from the brink to the
inlet of the Emerald Pool, over 1/3 of a mile downstream.
The inlet of Emerald Pool is a waterfall itself, called
the Silver Apron, which drops about 60 feet in all,
but can it in no way be considered part of Nevada Falls.
Yosemite Falls
United States
Yosemite Falls is thought of as being the tallest officially
measured waterfall in North America, at 2,425 feet.
There are, however, several other waterfalls which may
be taller. First and foremost is Washington's Colonial
Creek Falls, which though not yet measured, could stand
a full 159 feet taller than Yosemite Falls, at 2,584
feet. There are also a handful of waterfalls in southwestern
British Columbia which may end up being taller than
Yosemite Falls, none of which are named, or have been
documented, however. |
