See photos (19) Valaste Waterfall, located on the Ontika limestone cliff, is more than 30 m high, making it the highest waterfall in Estonia.
The waterfall can be admired also from the side, whence you get a lovely view of the layers formed in 400 million years. The waterfall is most striking in spring and during floods. But it is most spectacular in winter, when the northern winds blow from the sea, with the water droplets forming ice sculptures on the trees on the limestone cliffs.
After enjoying the view, you can eat and rest in the nearby cafe.
At the 158th kilometre on the Tallinn-Narva road (E20), follow the signpost that reads 'Valaste juga 6 km' (Valaste Waterfall 6 km).
