The largest waterfall in Belarus, a unique place with its own special beauty.

The waterfall on the Vyata River is considered man-made. In the 19th century, there was a water mill here, and the remains of its structure can still be seen on the bank. Then a cardboard factory was built here and an artificial dam was erected on the river, which supplied electricity to nearby settlements. The power plant fell into disrepair over time, and a corner with a small waterfall appeared on the abandoned buildings.

Today, this is a unique place with its own special beauty: water falls like a wall from a height of about 2 meters, flows down huge boulders, forming foam. This spectacle is simply mesmerizing! The waterfall attracts not only local residents, but also tourists, providing an opportunity to take beautiful and atmospheric photos as a keepsake.

There is a territory equipped for tourists near the waterfall: gazebos with benches and tables, a toilet, changing cabins. On one side there is a convenient equipped approach to the water and you can swim. But you should be careful - the water flow is strong, the entire bottom is covered with many stones of different sizes and they are slippery. You can try to stand under the streams of water of the waterfall.

It's especially nice here on a hot summer day!

The waterfall on the Vyata River is an unusual place for Belarus. Here you can fully enjoy the beauty of nature, relax, calm down and put your thoughts in order, watching the flow of water and listening to its noise.
