Cascade de la Queue de Cheval
The Queue de Cheval waterfall forms, with the Grande Cascade and the Redole, the famous series of falls that gave its name to the village of Gimel-les-Cascades, in the Corrèze. Its name, 'horse's tail', comes from the slender shape the water takes as it divides over the rock before joining the Montane, in a setting of densely wooded granite gorges.
The site, among the first natural sites protected in France, in 1912, is explored by a path that follows all three waterfalls.
