A hidden and little explored natural treasure in the municipality of Caconda, Huíla province, in Angola.
Located in the village of Chicumandumbo, in the Gungue commune, they offer breathtaking landscapes and great potential for tourism. The waterfalls are formed by the waters of the Kuando River, which meander through the region, creating areas of power and serenity across rocky terraces.
The region is known for its rich water resources and cultural heritage. As it is still a well-preserved destination and remains outside the mainstream tourism circuit, it is an excellent choice for those seeking adventure, direct contact with nature, and tranquility, offering an authentic glimpse into the region inhabited by the local Ovimbundu people.
Although the Cuando (or Kuando) River is one of the major rivers of Southern Africa, also originating in Angola's Central Plateau, the waterfalls located specifically in Caconda stand out for their scenic beauty and crystal-clear waters flowing through the rocky landscape.
