1) Location

Kalandula Falls is in northeastern Angola, in Malanje Province, on the Lucala River. It’s commonly visited as a day/overnight trip from Malanje, and as a longer trip from Luanda depending on road conditions.

2) Size & formation

The falls form where the Lucala River drops over layered rock formations, producing a broad cascade and heavy mist near the base. Water levels vary strongly by season.

3) Viewing points

Upper viewpoints for panoramic photos and wide angles.
Side viewpoints where you can feel the spray and see the curtain effect.
Lower-area views (when accessible) for scale and sound.

4) How to get there

The practical route is via Malanje (then road to the falls). If you start from Luanda, plan for a longer drive and confirm road status locally.

5) Practical tips

Wear grip shoes; rocks and paths can be slippery.
Protect devices from mist (small dry bag helps).
Carry water/snacks and offline maps if network is weak.
Follow local guidance and respect safety boundaries near the edge.
