The falls are named for a nearby rock formation. Piedra Volada translates to "flying stone".
Our thoughts
This is the tallest waterfall in Mexico. Located in a remote part of Mexico's famous Copper Canyon, the falls only flow during the wet season, and can only be seen from across the canyon, a moderate distance away. Despite the meager flow, and limited duration, the falls are quite scenic and are tucked away in a tremendous canyon setting festooned with pine trees and enormous rock spires and cliffs.
