There are several waterfalls at the site, which is located 20 km south of the village of Barskoon. The height of the main cascade is Шаблон:Convert.[2][3] National Monument status was established in 1975.[4][5]

According to one legend, the waterfall was created from the tears of a female leopard who cried over the injured cubs that fell off a cliff.[6]

On the way to Barskoon, two monuments were erected. One is a Soviet truck on a wide pedestal, and the other is a bust of Yuri Gagarin.[7]
