Highest waterfall in North Sumatra. You can climb down to get near to the waterfall or just enjoy the vista from top.
The Sipiso-piso is a plunge waterfall in the Batak highlands of Sumatra, Indonesia. It is formed by a small underground river of the Karo plateau that falls from a cave in the side of caldera of Lake Toba, some 120 metres (390 ft) down to lake level. Sipiso-piso is a well-known tourist attraction and a nearby vantage point offers views of the falls and lake. There are 651 steps between the bottom of the waterfall and the main entrance.
