waterfall · Apuseni
It is a splendid waterfall over 18 meters high located across the road from Snail Hill. It is a landscape reserve, located on a rocky limestone threshold. Behind it is a mixed coniferous-deciduous forest. The waters in the area are rich in limestone and give rise to splendid limestone formations, of Paleozoic age, which increase the spectacularity of the place. Also near the waterfall there are three gigantic boulders - sculpted by time - which enhance the beauty of the place and give the landscape a particularly picturesque aspect.
Travertine-type calcareous formations deposited over time increase the area's spectacularity. The protected area has a surface of 2.5 ha. The Pișoaia waterfall, also known as the Vidra waterfall, is located in Vidra commune, Nemești village, near DJ762, Mihoiești - Avram Iancu.
