Kama Falls is a tall waterfall on the grassy plains of the Gran Sabana in southeastern Venezuela. The river splits at a rock lip into two white columns that plunge into a green gorge, and the spray throws rainbows over the pool below. The falls lie in the eastern part of Canaima National Park, and their Pemon name is Kama Merú. Sources put their height at 50 to 70 m. Around them stretch wide grasslands with tepuis on the horizon. You stand at the edge to watch the water drop, then take a path down to the foot of the falls to see the pool and spray up close. Visitors often camp nearby, and local people run stalls at the site. The falls are beside Troncal 10, the highway across the Gran Sabana, about 91 km in a straight line north of Santa Elena de Uairén. The edge has no barriers, so keep back, and the lower path is slippery. The UK advises against all but essential travel to Venezuela, and against all travel within 40 km of the Brazilian border, which includes Santa Elena de Uairén, so check current advice before you go.
