"Valul Miresei" Waterfall (Bride's Veil)

One of the Apuseni jewelery and another beauty of Cluj County, is the "Valul Miresei" waterfall, a paradise of water and greenery.

The waterfall is over 30 meters, and you will find her in the village of Rachitele, in the Apuseni Mountains, on the foothill of Vlădeasa.

Like many great places from the mountains, this waterfall has its legend. It is said that long ago, a bride had fallen from the steep cliffs in the area where is the waterfall, and her veil remained hanging on the rocks. There, the wedding guests, stopped and began to cry, thereby forming the waterfall. In reality, the "Bride's Veil" comes from the strong similarity between the shape of the waterfall and the famous piece of clothing worn by the females on their wedding day.

It is a two-stage waterfall, a unique grandeur and savagery, being the most representative waterfall in the Apuseni Mountains. It is situated at an altitude of 1000 meters and two increments totaling a difference of about 30 m. At the base of the step up, there is a hole deep with a diameter of 10 m, which ensures the water dispersion, from where he comes the resemblance with the veil

In winter, when the rock wall freezes, the waterfall area is a great place for ice climbing. Less
