The Studenovodské Waterfalls (Slovak: Studenovodsky vodopád or Vodopády Studeného), formerly known as Kolbach Falls, are a complex of waterfalls in the High Tatras, located at an altitude between 1,153 and 1,276 m (3,783 and 4,186 ft). The highest of the waterfalls is just 13 m (42.6 ft), but the complex, formed on the threshold of a triple glacial valley, is wide: it is approximately 1.5 km (0.93 mi) in length. It was one of the oldest tourist destinations in the Tatra Mountains.
