Hotnishki waterfall, Natural monument near Veliko Tarnovo, Bulgaria.
Description

History
The waterfall and its gorge were designated as a protected natural landmark in 1971. This protected status helped preserve the landscape from damage.
Culture
Local residents and visitors regularly gather at the waterfall site to celebrate traditional Bulgarian customs and participate in regional festivities.
Practical
Access is via a short path from the parking area and remains open throughout the year. Wear sturdy shoes since the ground can become slippery after rain.
