Urlătoarea Waterfall

The Urlătoarea waterfall (The Howl), which was created on the same-named creek close to Buşteni at an elevation of 1100 m, is one of Romania's most easily reached and popular waterfalls. From the town of Buşteni, one may easily stroll to the Urlătoarea (to the left of the cable car, on the forest road – red point). Additionally, a road constructed at King Carol's initiative, Poiana Apului (depicted with a blue dot), leads to the waterfall. Naturally, the noise it generates is what gave the place its original name, which translates to "howling waterfall." The waterfall is quite deep and rises to a height of 15 meters, especially after the winter snow has melted. Tourists who are wandering by can recognize it quickly.

The Howl, which rises to a height of 15 meters, earned its name from the loud noise the water made as it fell steadily, especially in the spring and fall. On her horseback excursions, Queen Mary frequently made it to this waterfall, stopping to rest on a nearby rock. The Great Howl and the Little Howl are two lesser waterfalls that are located above the main waterfall. Not to be confused with Vama Buzăului's Urlătoarea waterfall.
