Kaleytsa Skoka Waterfall is a natural cascade located near the village of Kaleytsa in the foothills of the Central Balkan Mountains. The waterfall features a distinct drop formed by the river flowing through a rocky, forested canyon. It is characterized by its accessible trail that leads visitors from the outskirts of the village into the wooded valley. The site is part of the local ecosystem of the Lovech Province. Visitors reach the waterfall via a short hiking path that follows the stream bed. The water flow can be significantly reduced during mid-summer dry periods.
