Waterfall of Branko

Nature Interest

Brankovský waterfall is located on the western edge of the Low Tatras at the mouth of the Revúcka valley. The waterfall with its height of 55 m is the highest waterfall in the Low Tatras. At the same time, it ranks in the top five highest waterfalls in Slovakia. The amount of water that flows through a waterfall depends on precipitation, ie also on the season. The waterfall and its surroundings have been a national natural monument since 1980. It belongs to the Low Tatras National Park. Despite its importance, the waterfall is little known to visitors to Liptov. In the winter months, the Brankovský waterfall turns into an ice wall covered with many trinkets and other ice formations.

The trail starts at the mouth of the Čutkovská valley and opens up all the most interesting corners of the area.
