Papala Falls is on the west wall of Waipio Valley. The stream the falls occur along is apparently springfed, however, the stream has been harnessed for various uses by developments in the valley, so the flow varies depending on the recent precipitation. We've estimated the height based on topographic maps. It's likely that there is no single fall of more than 400 feet, if that even.
