Cascada de Tamul

At 105m (345ft) tall, this is the highest waterfall in the state of San Luis Potosi and one of the most beautiful in Mexico, for its height and its famously crystalline torquoise water. Formed by the waters of the Gallinas River at its confluence with the Tampaon, Tamul Falls cascade into the Tampaon River.

Set up anchor in the vicinity of the viewpoint. The flow is too massive to stay in the middle of the watercourse, but rappeling down at the edge of the falls on canyon right is a safe option. You will need a 400ft rope but no need to pull it down, you will pick it up on the way back.
