Probiy (Ukrainian: Пробій; also called, Yaremche) is a waterfall on the Prut River, in Yaremche City, Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast, Ukraine. Probiy is 8 metres (26 ft) high and is one of the most powerful waterfalls in the Ukrainian Carpathians.

## History

[edit]

The waterfall was significantly higher during the 19th century. The waterfall lost its height as the channel leading up to it deepened.[1] There have been fatalities from people falling into the water onto rocks near the waterfall. The Probiy waterfall is a popular local place for kayakers and rafters.
