Cascada de Basaseachi National Park - 33326 Municipio de Ocampo

Very pretty. The walk is extensive. The road is full of curves and is long crossing the mountain range.

Majestic! The best time is in rainy weather, July-August. Please take care of the natural areas. No littering

If you come from the capital of Chihuahua, it takes about 4 hours to get here. There are no records of having been discovered during the time of the conquest, but until the mining boom in the eighteenth century that would put it on the map and until 1981 it would become a National Park with almost 6,000 hectares within what is known. such as Sierra Tarahumara in the municipality of Ocampo. The Basaseachi waterfall is the highest waterfall with permanent water in the country and second in the rainy season since another one called Piedra Volada appears very close to it within the same Barranca called Candameña. The Basaseachi waterfall is 249 meters high and the Piedra Volada waterfall exceeds 400 when it appears. You can't camp here, but there are many nearby ranches where you can. The entrance fee is $75 pesos in high season, since in low season there is no one in the booth. In this park you will find various trails that take you to different viewpoints to appreciate the waterfall and one of them takes you to the feet.
