The Danska Waterfall is a great natural spectacle. The peaty water flows down in several stages over rocks and ramps.

There used to be a mill and a small ironworks by the wild river. Today, only a few wall remnants are left.

A wavy forest path with many stones and roots, but it was also good for hiking when wet.

Few remnants of walls can still be seen near the waterfall, especially in the area of the wooden bridge in the lower part.

Very beautiful circular trail over hill and dale. In places also through marshy areas with wooden walkways. Good footwear is advisable.

Beautiful waterfall. Unfortunately, we didn't have the full water, but it was still beautiful to see. It looks even more impressive from below than from above.
