Tofalaria (the south of Siberia) hides the highest of the measured waterfalls in Russia. The height of the waterfall in the reference books is 328 meters.
"The waterfall is visible to the full height. It flies with high swings from the rocky step from the circus above. The waterfall has a height of at least 400 meters. When you are close you can see powerful stream roars, with which the voices of people are completely drowned out. Climbing a 400-meter cliff along the edge of the waterfall is completely impossible. We couldn't check the assumption that in the circus above the waterfall is a large glacier. Most likely, there is a glacier there, and at its end there is also a lake. "
