What to Expect and Is It Worth Visiting
Waterfall of male tears, as well as waterfall maiden's tears, located on the road to Lake Ritsa only a little further, 30 kilometers further along the way, and already on the territory of the Ritsa National Reserve. Only here the water flows in a thin stream, as if reminding that men's tears are stingy. But in addition to the waterfall itself, which is actually not very spectacular, there is a very beautiful forest in the vicinity, which is worth a walk.
A legend is associated with the origin of the waterfall, which is a continuation of The Legend of the waterfall of Maiden's tears. As it says, when the young man AHRA was hunting, in his heart he felt that his beloved Amra was dead, and could not restrain a stingy male tear, which turned into a waterfall.
