Overview

Why visit Jägala Waterfall

A broad waterfall on the Jägala River, with ice formations possible during cold weather.

Make it a nature stop

The waterfall is an outdoor stop outside Tallinn. Give yourself time to approach on foot and enjoy the river view rather than planning it as an indoor attraction or a guaranteed frozen-water spectacle.

Winter conditions

Wear footwear suited to slippery paths and use established viewing areas. Ice formations depend on the weather; do not plan to walk beneath hanging ice or onto the river.
