Located about 70km from Da Lat (Lam Dong province), Ta Hine features pristine mountain and forest scenery. There, the Jraiblian waterfall lies amidst the Chu Ru ethnic village, a sight both poetic and majestic.
The indigenous Chu Ru people call this waterfall Jraiblian, meaning “High Stone Waterfall,” and it is located in Ta Hine commune (Lam Dong province). Sometimes it is simply called the “Wild Waterfall,” because few people have ever set foot here, except during holidays when the ethnic people habitually come to admire the scenery. During the time when Da Lat was part of the Imperial territory (1950s), during hunting trips, Emperor Bao Dai (the last emperor of Vietnam) visited this waterfall, hence the name Bao Dai Waterfall.
To reach the waterfall, from the Ta Hine intersection (National Highway 20, about 40 km from Da Lat), turn onto the Dai Ninh hydroelectric road towards Phan Thiet for about 29 km, then turn left for another 3 km.
The waterfall stands over 60 meters high, cascading in three large columns of water with mist rising from the falls. At the foot of the waterfall are fascinating rock formations, mythologized and poeticized by the local people’s imagination. These are fossilized animals, birds, and humans, gathered to enjoy the breath of the forest.
The three watercourses flow into a lake of nearly 20 hectares, forming a stream that empties into Dai Ninh Lake. The stream meanders through natural, regenerating vegetation. Many fascinating harmonies of wind and forest trees create a space that expands with the visitor’s imagination and romantic, adventurous spirit. The scenery resembles a colorful ink painting, with its diverse shapes, forms, and mysterious lines.
There are many vantage points to admire the waterfall. You can stand high above, beneath the canopy of the evergreen broadleaf forest, or follow dozens of natural stone steps down to the base of the falls via natural paths or through the rocky gorge. Both paths are safe, mysterious, and cool thanks to the mist and green foliage.
The vegetation here is considered very rich and relatively well-preserved. Many centuries-old trees stand silently, their trunks reaching tens of meters into the air, clinging to the cliffs, attracting adventurous travelers and leaving them amazed as they discover a different world. The waterfall’s location makes it suitable for camping and outdoor excursions… Jraibliang Waterfall was designated a National Scenic Monument in 2000.
