Description
Debegeni Falls consists of a waterfall and a fast-flowing river. The surrounding landscape consists of conifers and shrubs. At the river, it is mostly rocky and the hiking trail is slippery during the year. Caution.
Debegeni Falls is mainly known as a tourist spot, but an avid birder will be able to enjoy the presence of some species here. Look out for the Mountain Wagtail seeking food in the river, or the Chorister Robin-Chat and Orange Ground-Thrush singing in the bushes.
