The Valaste water­fall is most impres­sive in ear­ly spring, then, the win­ter snow is melt­ing and vol­ume of cas­cad­ing water is great­est. Dur­ing win­ter the water­fall freezes and forms fairy-tale like ice sculp­tures. In 1997, a plat­form for tourists was built oppo­site the water­fall. There is a car park, some explana­to­ry signs and a trail using a dou­ble spi­ral stair­case to get down the cliff.
