The waterfall of Sipiso Piso

Continued from Bukit Gundaling, the "Good bye darling" hill.

After having enough of Berastagi we took a hired car which brought us to certain place down south.

There is something special to be seen here. Notice it?

A close-up look.

Closer and there's no mistaking the fall of water. Welcome to the Sipiso Piso waterfall!

Situated at 1,000 metres above sea level it is complemented by an amazing surrounding.

You see, the waterfall goes down a deep valley forming a stream.

And the stream flows into an immense lake.

Walking down to a vantage point closer to the lake I could see better how the Sipiso Piso waterfall is connected to the lake.

While it's hard to have a good look at the stream as it is so far down the valley you could surmise it from here.

Ah. What a great view of the lake.

For the record this is the northern part of the great highland lake called Danau (lake) Toba, a giant lake said to be created from the crater left of a super volcano which exploded some 74,000 years ago!
