Specialty Definition: Tugela Falls

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

Tugela Falls are the world's second highest waterfall. The total drop in five free-leaping falls is 3,110-feet (947 meters). They are located in the Drakensberg (Dragon's Mountains) in the Royal Natal National Park in KwaZulu-Natal Provence, Republic of South Africa. They are easily viewed after a heavy rain from the main travel road into the park, glistening from the reflection of the late afternoon sun. The source of the Tugela River (Zulu for 'sudden') is at Mont-Aux-Sources several kilometers from the escarpment from which the falls drop. The water is pure and safe to drink above the falls.
