Zæjgælan, Mountain waterfall in North Ossetia, Russia.

Zæjgælan is a waterfall in the Midagrabindon River valley of North Ossetia, 7 km south of Jimara village. It drops 648 meters down a steep grey rock face, starting as a narrow white stream near the top and breaking into a fainter streak before disappearing into wet stone and scree at the base.

The waterfall's height was measured in 2016 at 648 metres, a figure cited in Russian sources; an Azerbaijani source gives about 600 metres from map measurements. The Ossetian name Зæйгæлæн means 'place where an avalanche falls', recorded in both sources. The site lies in the Midagrabindon valley, 7 km south of Jimara village in North Ossetia.

The Ossetian name Зæйгæлæн means 'place where the avalanche falls', from зæй (avalanche) and гæлæн (fall). The waterfall is one of the Midagrabin waterfalls of the Midagrabindon valley, and in spring and summer ice and rock collapses from the Zeygalan glacier above it can occur.

Water flow is at its maximum during July and August when glacier melting is most intense, bringing more water down the mountain. Winter months have much less water volume, making summer the best time to visit if you want to see it at full force.

The waterfall exhibits a pulsating behavior throughout the year, with water volume changing based on seasonal glacier melt patterns. This means each visit offers a different experience depending on when you come.
