Horses Waterfall is the tallest waterfall in Romania with a total height of 80 m (262 ft) split over several steps, the highest being 18 m (59) tall. Acording to an ancient legend, the name of the waterfall comes from a fact that occured here centuries ago. It seems that during a storm a herd of horses was cornered by a bear on the brink of the abyss where the waterfall starts. Because of poor visibility and being extremly frightened, the horses jumped in the abyss, thus dying. The waterfall is located in Piatra Rea Natural reserve, 3 km (1.8 miles) away from Borsa Resort at an elevation of 1300 m (4265 ft). The waterfall is formed on Fantana (Well in Romanian) creek and springs from Podul Cailor plateau.
