Hexenbrunnen von Tuhala
Sight / Fountain
According to a folk tale, the witches´ well starts to boil when the witches of Tuhala are struggling in the well. This temporary flood source on the Nabala-Tuhala Nature Reserve, on the underground river flowing through the Tuhala karst area, begins to overflow and ´boil´ 100 liters per second during the flood period when the flow in the river is at least 5000 liters in one second is. It is one of the most unique natural phenomena in Europe - water pressure is created in the underground river, it is by no means an artesian well. The delightful chart can be viewed from one day to three weeks. The depth of the well is 2.4 m, the water is brownish because it comes from the swamp. NB!
