Getting there

From in front of Durău Monastery follow the asphalt road to the mountain-rescue point where the park fee is paid; then follow the signs.

Good to know

The stretch above the waterfall is extremely dangerous and is fitted with wooden steps and railings; in winter the trail stops at the waterfall. A leaflet and advice are available from the mountain rescuers.
