Capra waterfall

The Capra Waterfall, also known as Iezerului Waterfall, is situated close to the 2000 m height mark, close to Transfăgărăşan, on the southern side of the Făgăraş Mountains. The Capra waterfall, which has a drop of more than 40 meters, only freezes during particularly severe winters due to the tremendous water flow. From the bridge in front of the waterfall, a sizable number of people may observe it at any time of year.

It is 35 meters high, rises from Lake Capra (2241 meters above sea level), and is one of the Transfăgărășan Road's "stars", appearing in photographs taken by tourists who pause by the highway to admire the stunning waterfall. Capra has a fairly strong water flow, which accounts for the fact that it seldom freezes over during the winter. The Bâlea waterfall is breathtaking in its size and splendor. The waterfall draws visitors throughout the year and completes Transfagarasan's enthralling environment. The water is quite chilly, frosty, and transparent. The waterfall has many hiking routes and a fresh picnic spot. In addition to the unique experience of the waterfall, those who are more daring have the option of cliff diving off the nearby rocks into the deep recesses of the lake. The lake's cold, clean mountain water seems like the perfect treat after the walk.
