Waterfall of Jägala

A wonderful 7,8 m high waterfall running down the limestone edge is the highest in Estonia.  Water has smoothed the limestone edge for centuries.  As a result a 12-14 m deep and 300 m long valley has been created.  The oldest known written record of a water mill in Estonia (from the early 13th century) dates from here. 

These waterfalls are nicknamed by the Latvians as the Niagara Falls of the Baltics !
