Orinduik Falls in September 2007

The Orinduik Falls lie on the Ireng River on the Pakaraima Mountains. Orinduik Falls is a wide, multi-tiered series of cascades. Waterfall is approximately 25 m tall and more than 150 m wide.[1]

There are other waterfalls on Ireng River, including the approximately 100 m tall Kurutuik Falls located more than 40 km to the north, but due to hard accessibility these falls are rarely visited.[2]

The area is inhabited by Macushi and Patamona people, and there are a few villages in the vicinity of the falls.[3]
