Varisköngäs Waterfall

Varisköngäs, is one of the most beautiful waterfalls in Kainuu. Located along the Haverinen-Varisköngäs hiking trail, the 11-metre-high waterfall is a spectacular sight, especially during spring floods. The waterfall can also be viewed from the parking area along the Aittokoskentie, which is about 300 m long and marked. There are steps along the way, and the waterfall can be admired from the top, next to the fireplace, as well as from the resting place below.
