A beautiful waterfall that is definitely worth visiting! What to keep in mind:

  1. Focus on the sign on the road, not on where Google Maps leads!

  2. When you get to the station building, you will see parked cars - do not stop there, you need to go down the road further! There is a large parking lot at the waterfall itself. Independent descent is quite difficult, the road is steep.

  3. Double-cascade waterfall. To look at the upper cascade, you will have to climb a very steep staircase (very!). Therefore, if you are traveling with children or older people, you will have to be satisfied only with the lower cascade, it is dangerous to go up with them.

It is possible to climb up the steep ropeway to the top, see the same waterfall from above, look at various old constructions made for the same hydroelectric power plant.
