Pfersag-Wasserfall, Natural monument in Burgkunstadt, Germany.

The Pfersag Waterfall cascades over a horseshoe-shaped rock formation, stretching 5 meters in length and 2 meters in width at 380 meters elevation.

The waterfall represents a geological formation that emerged through centuries of water flow, creating deep marks in the rocks of Upper Franconia.

The waterfall forms part of the regional nature preservation network, reflecting German commitment to protecting natural water features for future generations.

Multiple hiking trails lead to the waterfall, with the Gottesgartenrundweg Nord providing the most direct access from Burgkunstadt train station.

During winter months, the waterfall transforms into ice formations, while in rainy periods water flows across the entire horseshoe-shaped rock face.
