Cascadas de Minas Viejas

This breathtaking natural wonder bursts from the heart of lush rainforest in the La Huasteca Potosina region of Mexico’s San Lui Potosi state.

About

The Minas Viejas Waterfalls, also known as Cascadas de Minas Viejas, feature two cascades that plummet over 50 meters into an immense, vivid blue pool. Nestled in a region of unique geography, with expansive canyons, enchanting caves, and other thundering waterfalls nearby, it’s a veritable paradise for outdoor lovers. Discover smaller pools that offer tranquil waters perfect for floating and relaxation, and take in the ethereal beauty of the waterfall’s vibrant blue hues. First, descend a well-maintained path and staircase with handrails, and pause at the mirador for a stunning view of the falls. Entrance requires a fee of 60 pesos per person, and life jackets are mandatory, with rentals available for 30 pesos for a two-hour period. The site offers essential amenities, including food stalls, restaurants, bathrooms, and shops selling refreshments and water-related gear. Adventurous souls can partake in activities such as rock jumping into the pool near the falls or join rappelling tours offered by local companies.
