A beautiful mountain lake nestled beautifully between the mountains and forest. Its clear and calm waters provide the opportunity for great photos with the reflections of the mountains and forest.

Well, "waterfall" is probably too strong a word here. But the stream flows down into the valley via cascades, each time managing a drop of 1-1.5 meters.
