Great Kureika waterfall, Waterfall on Kureika River in Krasnoyarsk Territory, Russia.
The Great Kureika waterfall drops 13 meters over basalt cliffs between Lakes Dyupkun and Anama on the Putorana Plateau of Siberia.
The waterfall established its position as Russia's most powerful water discharge site, with flow rates reaching 1000 cubic meters per second during peak seasons.
The indigenous communities of Krasnoyarsk Territory maintain traditional hunting and fishing practices in the pristine areas surrounding the Great Kureika waterfall.
Access to the waterfall requires specialized off-road vehicles and experienced guides due to its location in remote Siberian wilderness without tourist facilities.
During winter months, the entire waterfall transforms into massive ice formations, while summer brings continuous daylight due to its location above the Arctic Circle.
