Don't fall for the scam by the boy (named Kleidi) in the parking lot (see photo). They ask 5,500 lek to drive up and down to the waterfall in a 4x4. The walk to the waterfall is easy to do on foot; the car they drive is a black Volkswagen Touareg. A massive scam!!!! The waterfall is beautiful to look at, but not the most spectacular.

A very beautiful waterfall. The water is cold and perfect for cooling off.
