Gocta
Gocta ( es, Catarata del Gocta) is a perennial waterfall with two drops located in Peru's province of Bongara in Amazonas, approximately to the northeast of Lima. It flows into the Cocahuayco River. Although the waterfall had been well known to locals for centuries (it is in full view of a nearby village), its existence was not made known to the world until after an expedition made in 2002 by a German, Stefan Ziemendorff, with a group of Peruvian explorers.

At the time of the discovery, Ziemendorff successfully persuaded the Peruvian government to map the falls and to measure their height.

He stated that the total height was measured at , which ranked Gocta as the third-ta ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
