Charakteristik:
The "Ogașul Slacini" stream, a right tributary of the Cerna River, has formed the Vânturătoarea Waterfall, located in the Cerna Mountains. Although the canyon has only 5 abseils, it reaches its peak with an impressive waterfall nearly 80 meters high, with a rebelay on the wall where the water falls freely for the last 40 meters. This gives it the reputation of having the highest free-falling waterfall in the entire country. Even the daring individuals who descend first to the rebelay feel the thrill of the challenge.
Der Bach "Ogașul Slacini", ein rechter Nebenfluss der Cerna, hat den Vânturătoarea-Wasserfall in den Cerna-Bergen gebildet. Obwohl die Schlucht nur 5 Abseilstellen hat, erreicht sie ihren Höhepunkt mit einem beeindruckenden Wasserfall, der fast 80 Meter hoch ist und an dessen Wand das Wasser auf den letzten 40 Metern frei fällt. Dies verleiht ihm den Ruf, der höchste frei fallende Wasserfall des ganzen Landes zu sein. Sogar die Wagemutigen, die zuerst zum Rebelay hinabsteigen, spüren den Nervenkitzel der Herausforderung.
